Arjuna’s Himalayan Departure and the Commencement of Severe Tapas
Janamejaya’s Inquiry; Sages Approach Śiva
ततो<5भिपीडितैगरत्रि: पिण्डीकृत इवाबभौ । फाल्गुनो गात्रसंरुद्धो देवदेवेन भारत,भारत! तदनन्तर देवाधिदेव महादेवजीके अंगोंसे अवरुद्ध हो अर्जुन अपने पीड़ित अवयवोंके साथ मिट्टीके लोंदे-से दिखायी देने लगे
tato 'bhipīḍitair gātraiḥ piṇḍīkṛta ivābabhau | phālguno gātra-saṃruddho devadevena bhārata ||
于是，法尔古那（阿周那）四肢被压迫束缚，痛楚难忍，竟仿佛被挤压成一团。其身被诸神之主摩诃提婆牢牢制住，噢，婆罗多啊。

Educational Q&A
Human strength and martial prowess are limited; before divine reality one must cultivate humility, endurance, and devotion. The hero’s subduing becomes a prerequisite for receiving higher knowledge and divine weapons.
In the Kirāta episode, Śiva (as Devadeva) overpowers Arjuna; Arjuna’s limbs are pressed and immobilized so that he appears like a compacted lump, signaling Śiva’s supremacy and the testing of Arjuna’s resolve.
