Sanatkumāra said: When Tripura had become like that, and the demon had abandoned the worship of Śiva, when the whole duty of women was destroyed and evil conduct was established, the gods said: Homage to you, the Self of all, to Śaṃkara who takes away distress, to Rudra, to the blue-throated one, to him whose form is consciousness, to the wise one. O all-knowing one, O you who pervade in every direction, lord of all, unveiled, of universal form, of misshapen eyes — I bow to you on every side. Sanatkumāra said: Having thus praised the great Lord, the gods stood before (him), their palms joined, wretched, their bodies bowed down. Brahmā said: No sin whatever exists, since you are the best of the knowers of yoga, the Supreme Lord, the highest Brahman, ever the protector of the gods and the sages. Śiva said: O Brahmā, if I am proclaimed king of the gods, the sovereign, then there is no manner of it for me — whom should I, as lord, here take up?
