अथेश्वरः पद्मयोनेः श्रुत्वा गर्ववतीं गिरम् । सकोपतः समुत्पाद्य पुरुषं भैरवाकृतिम्
atheśvaraḥ padmayoneḥ śrutvā garvavatīṃ giram | sakopataḥ samutpādya puruṣaṃ bhairavākṛtim
Pagkaraan, ang Panginoon, nang marinig ang mapagmataas na pananalita ng Ipinanganak sa Lotus (Brahmā), ay sa galit ay lumikha ng isang Nilalang na may anyong Bhairava.
Skanda (deduced: Kāśīkhaṇḍa typically Skanda → Agastya)
Tirtha: Kāśī
Type: kshetra
Scene: Īśvara, stirred by Brahmā’s proud words, emanates a terrifying yet majestic puruṣa—Bhairava—radiant, armed, and lion-like in presence; the air thick with power, with Kāśī’s skyline faint behind.
Divine justice arises to restrain arrogance; Bhairava represents Śiva’s corrective power that restores dharma.
Kāśī—especially the Bhairava tradition central to Vārāṇasī’s sacred landscape.
Not stated here; the verse introduces Bhairava’s manifestation, foundational for later Kāśī Bhairava worship.
