Soma Pacifies the Pracetās; Dakṣa’s Haṁsa-guhya Prayers; Hari Grants Creative Power
रूपं तन्महदाश्चर्यं विचक्ष्यागतसाध्वस: । ननाम दण्डवद्भूमौ प्रहृष्टात्मा प्रजापति: ॥ ४० ॥
rūpaṁ tan mahad-āścaryaṁ vicakṣyāgata-sādhvasaḥ nanāma daṇḍavad bhūmau prahṛṣṭātmā prajāpatiḥ
Thấy hình tướng vĩ đại, kỳ diệu và rực sáng của Bhagavān, Prajāpati Dakṣa ban đầu hơi sợ hãi; rồi lòng tràn hoan hỷ, ông phủ phục xuống đất theo lễ dandanvat để đảnh lễ Ngài.
It shows that beholding the Lord’s wondrous form naturally awakens reverential awe and heartfelt joy, leading a devotee to surrender through full obeisance.
Because the divine manifestation was overwhelmingly majestic and astonishing; Daksha was struck with sādhvasa (reverent awe) and responded with complete submission.
Cultivate humility and surrender—approach worship, mantra, and scripture with reverence, and let genuine gratitude express itself through respectful actions and devotion.
