Adhyāya 352: Brāhmaṇa–Nāga Saṃvāda — Uñchavrata-niścaya
Dialogue and the Resolve to Practice Uñchavrata
अथ तत्रासतस्तस्य चतुर्वक्त्रस्य धीमत: । ललाटप्रभव: पुत्र: शिव आगाद् यदृच्छया,पहले एक दिन बुद्धिमान् चतुर्मुख ब्रह्माजी जब वहाँ बैठे हुए थे, उसी समय उनके ललाटसे उत्पन्न हुए पुत्र महायोगी त्रिनेत्रधारी भगवान् शिव अनायास ही आकाशमार्गसे घूमते हुए वैजयन्तपर्वतके सामने आये और शीघ्र ही आकाशसे उस पर्वतशिखरपर उतर पड़े
atha tatrāsatas tasya caturvaktrasya dhīmataḥ | lalāṭaprabhavaḥ putraḥ śiva āgād yadṛcchayā ||
ครั้นแล้ว เมื่อพระพรหมผู้ทรงปัญญา ผู้มีสี่พักตร์ประทับอยู่ ณ ที่นั้น บุตรคือพระศิวะผู้บังเกิดจากพระนลาฏ ก็เสด็จมาถึงโดยบังเอิญเอง

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the idea that divine forces may act without external prompting—Śiva arrives 'yadṛcchayā' (of his own accord). In dharma literature, such spontaneous arrival often signals that cosmic order is being maintained through timely, unforced intervention.
Brahmā, described as wise and four-faced, is seated at a certain place. At that moment Śiva—identified as Brahmā’s son born from his forehead—arrives unexpectedly/spontaneously.
