29. Now, the description of the deeds of Lohāsura; there, the performance of austerity by Lohāsura on the bank of the Sarasvatī to please Śiva; Indra striking him with fists while he was performing austerity in order to break his austerity; then the war of Lohāsura with the gods; the description of Śaṃkara remaining on his chest, Brahmā on his neck, and Viṣṇu on his feet as he fell face-upwards; now, by Brahmā's word, Lohāsura, being satisfied by the presence of Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Maheśvara in his body, remained in that very position of falling face-upwards in that Dharmāraṇya; then the granting of boons to Lohāsura by Brahmā, Viṣṇu, and Rudra. 143 1
