Tīrtha-yātrā: Phalaśruti and Sacred Geography from Lohitya to Prayāga
Pulastya’s Instruction
ततस्तस्मिन् प्रनृत्ते तु स्थावरं जंगमं च यत् | प्रनृत्तमुभयं वीर तेजसा तस्य मोहितम्,वीर! उनके नृत्य करते समय उनके तेजसे मोहित हो सारा चराचर जगत् नृत्य करने लगा
tatastasmīn pranṛtte tu sthāvaraṁ jaṅgamaṁ ca yat | pranṛttam ubhayaṁ vīra tejasā tasya mohitam ||
At nang siya’y magsimulang sumayaw, ang lahat sa daigdig—maging ang di-gumagalaw at ang gumagalaw—ay napakilos. O bayani, nalito at nabighani sa ningning ng kanyang kapangyarihan, ang buong sangnilikha ay waring nakisabay sa sayaw, na para bang hinihila ng lakas ng kanyang pag-iral.

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how overwhelming spiritual power (tejas) can move and transform the entire field of experience—suggesting that true potency is not merely physical force but a radiance that compels alignment, even in nature itself.
A figure begins to dance, and the narration describes a wondrous effect: both the immovable and movable parts of creation appear to dance as well, as if enchanted or overpowered by the dancer’s tejas.
