The sages said: Lust, fury, greediness, delusion, arrogance and harassment and all living beings mobile and immobile are burned by the fire originating from you. O lord of Devas, be our protector even as we are being burned. O highly blessed one, O supreme lord, for the welfare of the world you sprinkle the living beings. O auspicious observer, O lord, command us: we shall carry out your behest, in thousands and crores of living beings, in hundreds and crores of forms, we are unable to reach the extremities. O lord of Devas, obeisance be to you.
