The Great Epic of the Bhārata dynasty 13.14.6-8

13.14.6

vāsudeva uvāca |
na gatiḥ karmaṇāṃ śakyā vettumīśasya tattvataḥ || 6 ||

"Vasudeva said, 'The very deities with Indra, and the Grandsire Brahma numbering among them, and the great Rishis also, are incompetent to understand the course of Mahadeva's acts truly and in all their details. Even He is the end which all righteous people attain. The very Adityas who are endued with subtile sight, are unable to behold his abode. How then can one that is merely a man succeed in comprehending Him? I shall, therefore, truly recite to you some of the attributes of that illustrious slayer of Asuras, who is regarded as the Lord of all sacrifices and vows.

13.14.7

hiraṇyagarbhapramukhā devāḥ sendrā maharṣayaḥ |
na viduryasya nidhanamādiṃ vā sūkṣmadarśinaḥ |
sa kathaṃ naramātreṇa śakyo jñātuṃ satāṃ gatiḥ || 7 ||

13.14.8

tasyāhamasuraghnasya kāṃścidbhagavato guṇān |
bhavatāṃ kīrtayiṣyāmi vrateśāya yathātatham || 8 ||
