Adhyaya 73 — त्रिपुरदाहे ब्रह्मस्तवः
Brahmā’s Hymn in the Context of Tripura’s Burning
तारकाक्षो ऽपि दितिजः कमलाक्षश् च वीर्यवान् विद्युन्माली च दैत्येशः अन्ये चापि सबान्धवाः
tārakākṣo 'pi ditijaḥ kamalākṣaś ca vīryavān vidyunmālī ca daityeśaḥ anye cāpi sabāndhavāḥ
塔罗迦眼(Tārakākṣa)亦至——狄蒂所生之阿修罗——并有勇力的莲眼(Kamalākṣa),以及电鬘(Vidyunmālī)——达那婆之主——与诸多同党,皆携亲族而聚(结为阿修罗军盟)。
Suta Goswami (narrating to the sages of Naimisharanya)
By listing the daitya leaders and their allied clans, the verse sets the backdrop for Shiva’s restoration of dharma—showing the Linga’s Lord (Pati) as the ultimate refuge when pasha-like forces of disorder consolidate.
Indirectly: the gathering of powerful daityas highlights the need for the supreme Pati—Shiva—whose sovereignty is not merely martial but metaphysical, subduing pasha (bondage) that overwhelms pashus (souls) through adharmic power.
No explicit puja-vidhi is stated in this line; the takeaway is contemplative Pashupata discipline—recognizing ‘asuric confederations’ as inner pasha (pride, violence, delusion) to be dissolved through Shiva-bhakti and yogic restraint.
