ततो देवगणाः सर्वे तद्दृष्ट्वा तस्य चेष्टितम् । लास्यस्य वारणार्थाय प्रोचुर्वृषभवाहनम्
tato devagaṇāḥ sarve taddṛṣṭvā tasya ceṣṭitam | lāsyasya vāraṇārthāya procurvṛṣabhavāhanam
Bấy giờ, toàn thể chư thiên thấy hành trạng ấy liền thưa với Đấng mang cờ bò—Vṛṣabhavāhana—khẩn cầu Ngài ngăn dừng vũ điệu đó.
Deductive (Nāgarakhaṇḍa Tīrthamāhātmya narrator; likely Sūta/Lomaharṣaṇa in Purāṇic frame)
Tirtha: Camatkārapura (episode locus)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Deva hosts gather amid chaos, hands folded or raised in alarm, turning toward Śiva—bull-bannered, calm yet powerful—requesting him to halt the dangerous dance-effect.
Cosmic order (dharma) is safeguarded by divine oversight; even wondrous events must align with the welfare of the world.
The episode is situated within Nāgarakhaṇḍa’s tīrtha narrative; the verse emphasizes Śiva’s role rather than naming the tīrtha.
None; it introduces the devas’ appeal to Śiva for restraint.
