भद्रवटगमनम् — स्कन्देन महिषदानवनिग्रहः

Bhadravaṭa Procession and Skanda’s Neutralization of Mahiṣa

प्राणस्य चानुदात्तस्तु व्याख्याता: पञचविंशति: । देवान्‌ यज्ञमुषश्नान्यानू सूृजत्‌ पञ्चदशोत्तरान्‌

prāṇasya cānudāttas tu vyākhyātāḥ pañcaviṃśatiḥ | devān yajñamuṣaśnān yānū sṛjat pañcadaśottarān |

مارکنڈیہ نے کہا—پرَان سے انوداتّ بھی پیدا ہوا، اور اس کی پچیس اولاد کے نام بیان کیے گئے۔ اس کے بعد ‘تپَس’ نامی پانچجنّیہ نے دیوتاؤں کے یَجْنوں میں رخنہ ڈالنے والے مزید پندرہ دیو-صفت وِنایک رچے، جو یَجْن کے لُوٹنے اور برباد کرنے والے ہیں۔ ان میں سب سے پہلے پانچ پیدا ہوئے: سُبھیم، اَتیبھیم، بھیم، بھیمبل اور اَبل—یہ وہ عامل ہیں جو دیوتاؤں کے یَجْن کو درہم برہم کرتے ہیں۔

Educational Q&A

Sacred action (yajña) is not merely performance but requires steadiness and purity; forces of obstruction (vināyakas) arise within the cosmic order itself, implying that dharma is upheld through vigilance, discipline, and the capacity to overcome impediments.

Mārkaṇḍeya continues a genealogical-cosmic account: from Prāṇa comes Anudātta with twenty-five offspring, and then Tapas produces fifteen additional divine beings called Vināyakas, introduced as disruptors of the gods’ sacrifices; five of these are named explicitly.
