ततः स कथयामास तद्वाक्यं च पिनाकिनः । अतिक्रूरं विशेषेण तत क्रुद्धः पिनाकधृक्
tataḥ sa kathayāmāsa tadvākyaṃ ca pinākinaḥ | atikrūraṃ viśeṣeṇa tata kruddhaḥ pinākadhṛk
پھر اُس نے پیناک دھاری بھگوان شِو کو وہ باتیں سنائیں۔ وہ کلمات نہایت سخت تھے؛ خصوصاً سن کر پیناک کے دھارک شِو غضب سے بھر اُٹھے۔
Narrator (Purāṇic narrator within the chapter)
Tirtha: Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra (frame)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Ṛṣis of Naimiṣāraṇya (standard Purāṇic frame; implied)
Scene: A messenger or attendant reports cutting, offensive words to Śiva; Śiva, holding the Pināka, flares with wrath—eyes reddening, aura intensifying, gaṇas tense behind him.
Insulting or threatening the divine and dharma has consequences; Purāṇic narrative stresses reverence and restraint in speech.
The verse itself centers on Śiva (Pinākin); within the chapter’s frame, it supports the Kāśī–Kailāsa sacred geography being narrated.
