अध्याय १६ — शङ्कर-उमा-वरदानम् तथा तण्डि-स्तुतिः (Śaṅkara–Umā Boon-Granting and Taṇḍi’s Hymn)
गुह्वानीमानि नामानि तण्डिर्भगवतो<च्युत । देवप्रसादाद् देवेश: पुरा प्राह महात्मने
guhyānīmāni nāmāni taṇḍir bhagavato 'cyuta | devaprasādād deveśaḥ purā prāha mahātmane ||
风神伐由说道:“阿周陀啊,圣仙檀荼曾向我宣示世尊的那些秘名——在远古之时,诸神之主梵天因天神(大天,摩诃提婆)的恩泽,将这些名号启示给大心的檀荼。”
वायुदेव उवाच
Sacred knowledge—especially divine names—is portrayed as a grace-bestowed, lineage-transmitted teaching: it is received through divine favor (prasāda) and passed on responsibly from a qualified source to a worthy recipient.
Vāyu addresses Kṛṣṇa (Acyuta) and explains the provenance of certain secret names of Mahādeva: Brahmā once taught them to the sage Taṇḍi by Mahādeva’s grace, and Taṇḍi later recounted those same names to Vāyu.
