वारुणी सभा — Varuṇa’s Divine Assembly
Nārada’s Description
स्रग्विणो दिव्यगन्धाश्न दिव्यगन्धानुलेपना: । आदित्यास्तत्र वरुणं जलेश्वरमुपासते,उस सभामें दिव्य हार, दिव्य सुगन्ध तथा दिव्य चन्दनका अंगराग धारण करनेवाले आदित्यगण जलके स्वामी वरुणकी उपासना करते हैं
sragviṇo divyagandhāś ca divyagandhānulepanāḥ | ādityās tatra varuṇaṃ jaleśvaram upāsate ||
那罗陀说道：在那天界会堂中，阿底提耶诸神——佩戴天花鬘饰，身带天香，涂抹神圣檀香膏——礼敬伐楼那，众水之主。此景昭示宇宙秩序之分明：纵是大神，也以恭敬之奉事，尊崇一域之正当主宰。

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights dharmic order and rightful authority: even powerful deities (the Ādityas) honor Varuṇa as the proper lord of the waters, modeling reverence, humility, and recognition of cosmic roles.
Nārada describes a wondrous divine assembly where the Ādityas, splendidly adorned with celestial garlands and fragrances, are engaged in worship of Varuṇa, identified as jaleśvara, the sovereign of the waters.
