Here the delivered people offer praise to heaven. It is significant that, not knowing their earthly deliverer, the people turn their gratitude to the gods: the deed is so wondrous that it seems to them the work of higher powers. Here is the true instinct of a grateful heart: behind an unexpected salvation it discerns a hand from above — and it is not mistaken, for Bhima's strength is indeed granted by the gods. Thus the scripture shows that gratitude for deliverance rightly ascends to heaven: the visible agent is hidden, but the source of his power is celestial; and the people, praising the gods, honor the true origin of their salvation.
