"I too shall go, O Brahman, along with all of you, to Śiva's abode; I shall beg forgiveness of Giriśa, for we have certainly committed offences against Śiva." Near it the immortals saw that lovely city named Alakā, the most divine (city) of Kubera, the friend of Rudra; (and they saw) the Supreme Lord bearing the true form desired by ascetics, the friend of all out of tenderness, gloriously adorned with ashes and the rest.
