"And the divine deeds of the wise Mahadeva — those I shall proclaim to you, as I understand, as I have heard. Neither gods nor asuras in the world, neither gandharvas nor rakshasas prosper when he is angered, even those who had fled into a cave [for shelter]. In his fury, the fearless Bhava pierced the sacrifice [of Daksha] then, loosing an arrow from his bow, and roared with a great cry."

Vyasa begins the tale of these deeds, and the first is the punishment of Daksha's sacrifice, performed without honor to Rudra. It is significant that from the wrath of the Supreme there is no shelter, "not even in a cave": before the all-knowing there is nowhere to hide. The verse teaches that neglect of due reverence to the Supreme brings a disaster from which none can hide; and the destruction of Daksha's sacrifice is a lesson that a rite performed without devotion and without honor to God turns into its own ruin.
