with manes shining like fire, bearing nandyāvarta markings, / with tongues shining like kiṃśuka flowers, their stature like Mount Kailāsa, / bound with bonds of fire, fearsome in form— / Bhārgava saw a thousand lions inside the body of the God of gods. / Remaining within Hara's body, he also saw the gods along with Indra and the Ādityas, / together with the hosts of apsarases and mortals, and the battle between the lords of gaṇas and the Asuras.
