Nāgendra–Brāhmaṇa Saṃvāda: Praśna-vidhi and Dharmic Approach on the Gomatī Riverbank
एवमेव महाभागो बभूवाश्वशिरा हरि: । पौराणमेतत् प्रख्यातं रूपं वरदमैश्वरम्,इस तरह महाभाग श्रीहरिने हयग्रीवरूप धारण किया था। भगवानका यह वरदायक रूप पुरातन एवं पुराण-प्रसिद्ध है
evaṃ eva mahābhāgo babhūvāśvaśirā hariḥ | paurāṇam etat prakhyātaṃ rūpaṃ varadam aiśvaram ||
Sinabi ni Vaiśaṃpāyana: “Gayon nga, ang pinagpalang si Hari ay nag-anyong may ulo ng kabayo. Ito’y isang sinaunang pagpapakita, tanyag sa mga Purāṇa—makadiyos at makapangyarihan, at nagbibigay ng biyaya.”

Educational Q&A
The Lord’s manifestations are purposeful and compassionate: His sovereign power (aiśvarya) expresses itself as a boon-giving presence, affirmed by ancient tradition, encouraging faith in divine protection and the safeguarding of dharma and sacred learning.
The narrator Vaiśaṃpāyana states that Hari assumed a horse-headed form (aśvaśiras), identifying it as an ancient, Purāṇa-celebrated divine manifestation known for granting boons.
