Yajña-bhāga-vyavasthā and the Pravṛtti–Nivṛtti Framework (यज्ञभागव्यवस्था तथा प्रवृत्तिनिवृत्तिधर्मविवेचनम्)
कम्पयामास सब्येन पाणिना पुरुषोत्तम: । तब उस आक्षेपको सहन न करके विशुद्धात्मा भगवान् विष्णुने अग्निकुमार स्कन्दकी ओर देखा। फिर उन पुरुषोत्तमने उस समय उस प्रज्वलित शक्तिको बायें हाथसे पकड़कर हिला दिया
kampayāmāsa savyena pāṇinā puruṣottamaḥ | tadā tam ākṣepaṁ soḍhuṁ na śaśāka viśuddhātmā bhagavān viṣṇuḥ skandam agnikumāraṁ prati dadarśa | tataḥ sa puruṣottamas tasmin kāle prajvalitāṁ śaktiṁ vāma-hastena gṛhītvā cālayāmāsa |
毗湿摩说：至上之人以左手将其握住，猛然一震而拨开。那清净自性的毗湿奴不堪此等挑衅，遂将目光转向火神阿耆尼之子——斯坎达。随即在那一刻，至上主以左手夺取那炽燃的长枪，振臂摇撼，将其荡开——显出面对侵凌时不动如山的主宰与克制。

Educational Q&A
Even when provoked, the ideal response is mastery over oneself: strength is shown not merely by force, but by controlled power and measured reaction aligned with dharma.
A blazing spear (śakti) associated with Skanda is directed as a provocation; Viṣṇu, described as pure-souled and supreme, looks toward Skanda and then calmly grasps the flaming weapon with his left hand and shakes it aside, neutralizing the threat.
