The Cāturmāsya Observances and the Sleeping–Awakening Cycle of the Gods (Hari–Hara Worship)
यावन्तो भास्कररथे भूतप्रेतादयः स्थिताः तावन्तो ब्रह्मसदनं गता वेदयितुं मुने
yāvanto bhāskararathe bhūtapretādayaḥ sthitāḥ tāvanto brahmasadanaṃ gatā vedayituṃ mune
圣者啊,凡驻立于婆斯迦罗(日神)车乘之上的诸类众生——如部多、饿鬼等——有多少,便有多少前往梵天之居所,以禀告此事。

Cosmic order (ṛta/dharma) is maintained through accountable transmission of events to higher authority; even marginal or fearsome classes (bhūta/preta) are depicted as functionally integrated into the divine polity rather than existing outside it.
Primarily within Vamśānucarita/Carita-style narrative (accounts of divine episodes and administration), rather than sarga/pratisarga; it functions as connective tissue advancing the episode toward Brahmā’s intervention.
Bhāskara’s chariot as a locus of many beings suggests the Sun’s all-pervasive witness and governance; the bhūta-preta presence hints at the Sun’s reach across visible/invisible realms, all of which ultimately report into Brahmā’s cosmic oversight.
