मा गच्छ मोहं मा गच्छ क्षिप्रमस्त्रं स्मर प्रभो । नारायणास्त्रं प्रयतः श्रुत्वेति मुमुचे स च
mā gaccha mohaṃ mā gaccha kṣipramastraṃ smara prabho | nārāyaṇāstraṃ prayataḥ śrutveti mumuce sa ca

Scene: Hari urges Indra to abandon delusion and recall the Nārāyaṇa-weapon; Indra, eyes focused, releases a radiant astric force—light streaming like a celestial river across the sky.
