Educational Q&A
Divine power (especially weapons) should be granted only to a worthy recipient (pātra) who has demonstrated disciplined capability and faithful service; desire alone is not a sufficient qualification.
A speaker, identified as Maheśvara, states a condition for receiving divine weapons: only when the divine lord recognizes the petitioner as qualified in weapon-bearing should the weapons be bestowed, emphasizing tested fitness and devoted attendance.
