Śiva-nāmānukīrtana-prastāvaḥ
Prologue to the praise of Śiva and the Upamanyu testimony
अनेकरावसंघुष्ट श्वानेकस्तुतिसंस्कृत: । सर्वभूतान्तकः सर्व: सर्वलोकप्रतिछ्तित:
anekarāvasaṅghuṣṭaḥ śvānekastutisaṃskṛtaḥ | sarvabhūtāntakaḥ sarvaḥ sarvalokapratiṣṭhitaḥ ||
婆苏提婆说道：“他以种种呼号与喧腾而震响；他受无数赞颂所礼敬。他是诸有情之终结者，本性包罗一切，并以万有内在之根基而安立于一切世界。”

Educational Q&A
The verse presents a theological-ethical vision: the ultimate reality is simultaneously praised in many ways, pervades all worlds as their inner foundation, and also functions as the inevitable end (antaka) of all beings—encouraging reverence, humility, and alignment with dharma in the face of mortality and cosmic order.
Vāsudeva is describing a supreme, all-pervading power/being using epithets: it is surrounded by loud tumult and many voices, receives diverse praises, brings all embodied life to its end, and remains established throughout all realms as the underlying presence.
