brahmā vṛto devagaṇair ṛṣibhiś ca mahātmabhiḥ | ājagāmāśu taṁ deśaṁ yatra yuddham avartata |
ท่ามกลางหมู่เทพและฤๅษีผู้ยิ่งใหญ่รายล้อม พระพรหมเสด็จโดยเร็วไปยังสถานที่นั้นเอง ที่ซึ่งศึกกำลังคุกรุ่นดุเดือดอยู่

The verse suggests that war and moral crisis are not merely human affairs; they reverberate through the cosmic order. The appearance of Brahmā with gods and sages implies oversight by higher authorities of dharma, especially when ominous signs indicate ethical imbalance or impending catastrophe.
Brahmā, accompanied by gods and great sages, quickly arrives at the location where the battle is underway. The scene emphasizes the gravity of the conflict and sets a tone of divine witnessing or intervention.
