अकांडे यच्च ब्रह्मांडक्षयोद्युक्तं हलाहलम् । कण्ठे दधार श्रीकण्ठः कस्तस्मात्परमो भवेत्
akāṃḍe yacca brahmāṃḍakṣayodyuktaṃ halāhalam | kaṇṭhe dadhāra śrīkaṇṭhaḥ kastasmātparamo bhavet
جب اچانک بحران میں ہَلاہَل زہر اٹھا، جو کائنات کی تباہی پر آمادہ تھا، تب شری کنٹھ نے اسے اپنے گلے میں تھام لیا؛ اس سے بڑا کون ہو سکتا ہے؟
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta), narrating to the sages (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa context)
Tirtha: Nīlakaṇṭha/Śrīkaṇṭha Mahātmyam (mythic motif)
Type: kshetra
Scene: The Hālāhala poison rises to destroy the cosmos; Śrīkaṇṭha (Śiva) contains it in his throat, saving the worlds; rhetorical acclaim follows.
The Supreme protects creation by accepting suffering for the welfare of all beings.
No tīrtha is specified; the verse recalls the cosmic episode of Hālāhala to glorify Śiva.
None directly; it supports devotional remembrance (smaraṇa) of Śiva’s saving act.
