Traducción

He said: "Welcome, gods; tell me what I should do. The sight of me is not fruitless — may your desire be fulfilled from this." Hearing this, all the celestials answered him: "Our splendor has been stolen by Vritra; be the refuge of the celestials. Behold our bodies, O god, mangled by blows; we have taken refuge in you — be our refuge, O Maheshvara."

Comentario

Twice the words 'śaraṇaṃ… gatiḥ bhava', 'be my refuge', resound: the prayer of the gods to Shiva is a model of sharanagati, surrender to the Supreme. And Shiva meets them with grace even before the request: 'amoghaṃ darśanaṃ mahyam', 'the sight of me is not fruitless.' It is telling that the very vision of God already carries the fulfillment of need. The verse teaches that turning to the highest refuge never remains fruitless: even the sight of the Lord is already a gift; and one who surrenders, taking refuge in Him as gati, receives not only protection but the very meeting itself, which is 'amogha' — never in vain.
