येनाद्य रक्षिताः सर्वे कालकूटमहाभयात् । येन नीलीकृतो विष्णुर्येन सर्वे पराजिताः
yenādya rakṣitāḥ sarve kālakūṭamahābhayāt | yena nīlīkṛto viṣṇuryena sarve parājitāḥ
جس نے آج سب کو کالکُوٹ زہر کے عظیم خوف سے بچایا؛ جس نے وِشنو کو بھی نیلا کر دیا؛ جس نے سب کو مغلوب کر دیا—
Unknown (Māheśvarakhaṇḍa narrative voice; building toward a devotional prescription)
Tirtha: Kedāra-kṣetra (contextual)
Type: kshetra
Scene: A vivid recollection of Kālakūṭa: gods and beings threatened, a dark-blue mark signifying poison’s effect, the savior’s power implied; the assembly points to the remembered event.
In cosmic संकट, salvation comes through a higher divine protector whose power surpasses even the gods.
The Kedāra-khaṇḍa setting suggests the Himalaya-Kedāra sacred landscape, though the verse highlights a mythic event rather than a geographic tirtha detail.
Not in this verse; it sets up the next verse’s instruction on worship.
