क्रुद्धैर्देवसमूहैश्च दानवा निहता रणे । तेषां शिरांसि संगृह्य सर्वे देवाः सवासवाः
kruddhairdevasamūhaiśca dānavā nihatā raṇe | teṣāṃ śirāṃsi saṃgṛhya sarve devāḥ savāsavāḥ
Sa digmaan, ang mga Dānava ay napatay ng nagngangalit na pulutong ng mga diyos. Tinipon ang kanilang mga ulo, ang lahat ng mga diyos, kasama si Vāsava (Indra), ay (gumawa ng ganito).
Mārkaṇḍeya (continuation)
Tirtha: Karoḍīśvara
Type: kshetra
Listener: King (rājendra)
Scene: The devas, still stern from battle, stand over the fallen Dānavas; attendants gather severed heads as Indra oversees—an intense, ritualized aftermath near the sacred precinct, foreshadowing a consecration or memorial act.
The triumph of the divine order is portrayed as restoring cosmic balance, preparing the ground for the establishment of a sacred Śiva site.
Karoḍīśvara, whose sanctity is framed through this deva–dānava episode.
None explicitly; the verse sets up the subsequent actions that lead to tīrtha consecration.
