सा विनिःसृत्य वै खेभ्यो दक्षिणामाश्रिता दिशम् | ददृशाते च तां कन्यां देवौ विश्वेश्वरावुभी
sā viniḥsṛtya vai khebhyo dakṣiṇām āśritā diśam | dadṛśāte ca tāṁ kanyāṁ devau viśveśvarāv ubhī ||
Nàng từ các khiếu nơi thân thể mà thoát ra, rồi quay về phương Nam và tiến bước. Ngay lúc ấy, hai bậc Chúa tể của vũ trụ—Phạm Thiên (Brahmā) và Thấp Bà (Śiva)—đã trông thấy thiếu nữ ấy.

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights moral-cosmic accountability: movements and choices, even when subtle or hidden (emerging from ‘apertures’ and moving away), are still within the sight and jurisdiction of higher divine principles represented by Brahmā and Śiva.
A maiden emerges and proceeds toward the southern direction. As she moves, the two great deities—Brahmā and Śiva—notice and behold her, marking her appearance as significant within the unfolding episode narrated by Nārada.
