इत्युक्तः स्वात्मभूर्देवः सुरैर्दैत्यविचेष्टितम् । सुरानुवाच भगवानतः संचिंत्य तत्त्वतः
ityuktaḥ svātmabhūrdevaḥ surairdaityaviceṣṭitam | surānuvāca bhagavānataḥ saṃciṃtya tattvataḥ
جب دیوتاؤں نے دیوتاؤں پر دَیَتوں کی سرکشی کا حال خودبھُو بھگوان (برہما) سے عرض کیا، تو اس مبارک ربّ نے حقیقت پر غور کر کے دیوگان سے خطاب فرمایا۔
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa), narrating (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa style)
Scene: Brahmā, serene and four-faced, listens as Devas report demonic outrages; he closes his eyes briefly in contemplation, then prepares to speak with measured authority.
Right action begins with tattva-vicāra—clear discernment—before counsel and intervention.
No tīrtha is named; this is a narrative pivot to Brahmā’s response.
None.
