ब्रह्मा वृतो देवगणैरऋषिभि श्ष महात्मभि: । आजगामाशु त॑ देशं यत्र युद्धमवर्तत
brahmā vṛto devagaṇair ṛṣibhiś ca mahātmabhiḥ | ājagāmāśu taṁ deśaṁ yatra yuddham avartata |
دیوتاؤں کے گروہ اور عظیم النفس رشیوں سے گھِرا ہوا برہما فوراً اسی مقام پر آ پہنچا جہاں جنگ زوروں پر تھی۔

The verse suggests that war and moral crisis are not merely human affairs; they reverberate through the cosmic order. The appearance of Brahmā with gods and sages implies oversight by higher authorities of dharma, especially when ominous signs indicate ethical imbalance or impending catastrophe.
Brahmā, accompanied by gods and great sages, quickly arrives at the location where the battle is underway. The scene emphasizes the gravity of the conflict and sets a tone of divine witnessing or intervention.
