चकार वर्मजालानि चिच्छेद च धनूंषि च । ततो विकवचा देवा विधनुष्काः प्रपीडिताः
cakāra varmajālāni ciccheda ca dhanūṃṣi ca | tato vikavacā devā vidhanuṣkāḥ prapīḍitāḥ
Ngài tạo nên những lưới giáp trụ, lại chém nát các cung. Bấy giờ chư Thiên—bị lột giáp, mất cung—liền bị áp bức khổ sở vô cùng.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) (deduced: Māheśvarakhaṇḍa narration to sages)
Scene: The daitya deploys interlaced ‘armor-nets’ (vṛma-jāla) and slices through divine bows; devas stand exposed—mail torn away, bows broken—faces strained, bodies pressed back by the enemy’s advance.
When ordinary protections fail, refuge in the higher divine purpose becomes necessary; the narrative points toward grace beyond mere weaponry.
