“Vì thế, bạch Chúa tể, nếu Ngài chuẩn thuận, Devendra (Indra) sẽ dùng vajra (lôi chùy) che phủ liṅga tối thượng của Ngài khắp nơi, để không bị tùy tiện đến gần.”
The Devas (gods), implied continuation
Tirtha: Arbuda-liṅga (contextual)
Type: temple
Scene: Devas propose Indra’s vajra forming a protective cover or boundary around the radiant liṅga—depicted as a shimmering, thunderbolt-like lattice or dome, signifying controlled access.
The holiest realities are protected with reverence; sacred power is to be approached with discipline, not casualness.
The liṅga of the Arbuda-khaṇḍa narrative is presented as extraordinarily potent within the Prabhāsa-khaṇḍa sacred geography.
A proposed protective act: concealing/covering the liṅga with Indra’s vajra, subject to Śiva’s consent.
