Chapter 36 · The Description of the Mutual Battle · Verses 1–36

अथ षट्त्रिंशोऽध्यायः

The messenger, having returned, related Śiva's word to Śaṅkhacūḍa in full and exactly as it was spoken. Hearing it, the mighty lord of the dānavas readily accepted battle alone, mounted his chariot with his ministers, and ordered his army to make ready against Śaṅkara. Śiva likewise set his own hosts and the gods in motion at once, arming himself as though in sport though he is lord of all. The battle broke out amid the din of instruments, uproar, and the cries of warriors, and the hosts of gods and dānavas fought one another in due order: Mahendra against Vṛṣaparvan, the sun against Vipracitti, Viṣṇu against Dambha, Kāla against the asura Kāla, Agni against Gokarṇa, Kubera against Kālakeya, Viśvakarmā against Maya, Mṛtyu against Bhayaṅkara, Yama against Saṃhāra, Varuṇa against Kālambika, the wind-god against Cañcala, Budha against Ghaṭapṛṣṭha, Śanaiścara against Raktākṣa, Jayanta against Ratnasāra, the Vasus against the hosts of the Varcas, the Aśvins against the Dīptimats, Nalakūbara against Dhūmra, Dharma against Dhurandhara, Maṅgala against Gaṇakākṣa, Vaiśvāna against Śobhākara, and Manmatha against Pipiṭa; the twelve Ādityas together fought Gokāmukha, Cūrṇa, the asura named Khaḍga, Dhūmra, Saṃhala, Viśva, Pratāpin, and Palāśa, while the remaining gods, aided by Śiva, fought the rest of the asuras. The eleven great Rudras met the eleven fearsome asura champions, mighty in strength and valour; Mahāmaṇi fought Ugracaṇḍa and his companions; the Moon fought Rāhu, and Jupiter fought Venus; and Nandīśvara together with all the other attendants engaged the foremost dānavas, too numerous to name individually. Meanwhile Śambhu remained at the foot of the banyan tree together with Kālī's son, as the assembled hosts fought on without pause, and Śaṅkhacūḍa, richly adorned, presided from a jeweled throne surrounded by ten million dānavas. A great and crushing battle then arose, with maces, spears, paṭṭiśas, discuses, bhuśuṇḍis, lances, hammers, swords, arrows, iron clubs, javelins, and axes flashing on every side; the roaring hosts severed one another's heads; elephants, horses, chariots, and foot-soldiers together with their riders were cut to pieces; the ground was strewn with severed limbs, banners, and weapons, with fallen crowns and earrings, and with other limbs heaped up like honeycombs; headless trunks ran about, watched by the eyes of their own severed heads, springing up with weapons still raised in their arms; warriors, leaping about, fought on with every kind of weapon; some, felling their foes with gold-tipped arrows, roared out heroic war-cries like rain-clouds heavy with water; one hero completely hid another, chariot and charioteer together, beneath a covering mass of arrows, as a monsoon cloud covers the sun; single combatants closed upon one another, challenging, advancing, and striking at each other's vital points; on every side hosts of heroes bearing many arms, banners, and weapons made a lion-like roar; and conches blared as the delighted heroes leapt about. For a very long time this terrible and magnificent battle between gods and dānavas raged on, delighting the hearts of warriors — all of it, the narrator declares, merely the sport of the great Lord Śaṅkara, the Supreme Self, by which the whole universe of gods, asuras, and men alike was held in wonder. दूतने लौटकर शिवका वचन विस्तारपूर्वक और यथार्थ रूपमें शङ्खचूडसे कह सुनाया। यह सुनकर प्रतापी दानवेन्द्रने प्रसन्नतापूर्वक युद्धको ही स्वीकार किया, मन्त्रियोंसहित रथपर सवार होकर शङ्करके विरुद्ध अपनी सेनाको तैयार रहनेका आदेश दिया। शिवने भी अपनी सेना और देवताओंको शीघ्र प्रेरित किया, तथा अखिलेश्वर होते हुए भी लीलासे सन्नद्ध हो गये। वाद्योंकी ध्वनि, कोलाहल तथा वीरोंकी गर्जनाके साथ युद्ध छिड़ गया, और देव-दानवोंके गण नियमानुसार परस्पर लड़ने लगे: महेन्द्र वृषपर्वाके साथ, सूर्य विप्रचित्तिके साथ, विष्णु दम्भके साथ, काल कालासुरके साथ, अग्नि गोकर्णके साथ, कुबेर कालकेयके साथ, विश्वकर्मा मयके साथ, मृत्यु भयंकरके साथ, यम संहारके साथ, वरुण कालम्बिकके साथ, वायु चञ्चलके साथ, बुध घटपृष्ठके साथ, शनैश्चर रक्ताक्षके साथ, जयन्त रत्नसारके साथ, वसुगण वर्चसोंके समूहके साथ, अश्विनीकुमार दीप्तिमानोंके साथ, नलकूबर धूम्रके साथ, धर्म धुरन्धरके साथ, मङ्गल गणकाक्षके साथ, वैश्वानर शोभाकरके साथ, तथा मन्मथ पिपिटके साथ भिड़े; बारह आदित्य मिलकर गोकामुख, चूर्ण, खड्ग नामक असुर, धूम्र, संहल, विश्व, प्रतापी तथा पलाशके साथ लड़े, और शेष देवता शिवकी सहायतासे शेष असुरोंके साथ युद्धरत हुए। ग्यारह महारुद्र ग्यारह भयंकर, महाबलपराक्रमी असुर वीरोंसे भिड़े; महामणि उग्रचण्ड आदिके साथ, चन्द्रमा राहुके साथ, और बृहस्पति शुक्रके साथ युद्ध करने लगे; तथा नन्दीश्वर आदि समस्त गण श्रेष्ठ दानवोंके साथ युद्धमें उतरे, जिनका अलग-अलग वर्णन विस्तारभयसे नहीं किया गया। इसी बीच शम्भु वटवृक्षके मूलमें कालीके पुत्रके साथ स्थित रहे, और समस्त सेनासमूह निरन्तर युद्धरत रहे, जबकि शङ्खचूड रत्नाभूषणोंसे सुसज्जित होकर करोड़ों दानवोंसे घिरे रत्नसिंहासनपर विराजमान रहे। तत्पश्चात् एक भीषण महायुद्ध छिड़ गया, जिसमें गदा, ऋष्टि, पट्टिश, चक्र, भुशुण्डि, प्रास, मुद्गर, खड्ग, भल्ल, परिघ, शक्ति तथा परशु जैसे नाना अस्त्र-शस्त्र चारों ओर चमकने लगे; गरजती हुई सेनाओंने एक-दूसरेके सिर काट डाले; हाथी, घोड़े, रथ तथा पैदल सैनिक अपने सवारोंसहित छिन्न-भिन्न हो गये; भूमि कटी हुई भुजाओं, ध्वजाओं, शस्त्रों, गिरे हुए मुकुटों-कुण्डलों तथा मधुमक्खीके छत्तोंके समान ढेर हुए अन्य अंगोंसे पट गयी; कटे हुए धड़ इधर-उधर दौड़ते रहे, उन्हींके कटे सिरोंकी आँखें उन्हें देखती रहीं, और वे उठी हुई भुजाओंमें शस्त्र लिये उछल पड़ते थे; उछलते-कूदते वीर नाना शस्त्रोंसे परस्पर लड़ते रहे; कुछ वीर स्वर्णमुखी बाणोंसे शत्रुओंको मारकर जलसे भरे मेघोंके समान वीरगर्जना करने लगे; एक वीरने बाणसमूहसे रथ-सारथीसहित दूसरे वीरको इस प्रकार ढक दिया जैसे वर्षाऋतुका मेघ सूर्यको ढक देता है; द्वन्द्वयुद्धमें वीर एक-दूसरेको ललकारते, आगे बढ़ते तथा मर्मस्थानोंपर प्रहार करते रहे; चारों ओर अनेक भुजा-ध्वज-शस्त्रोंसे युक्त वीरसमूह सिंहके समान गर्जना करते दिखायी देते थे, और शंख बजाते हुए हर्षित महावीर उछल-कूद करते रहे। इस प्रकार बहुत दीर्घकालतक देवताओं और दानवोंके बीच वह विकट, भयंकर तथा वीरोंको हर्षित करनेवाला महायुद्ध चलता रहा — यह सब वस्तुतः परमात्मा महाप्रभु शङ्करकी लीलामात्र थी, जिससे देव, असुर तथा मनुष्योंसहित सम्पूर्ण जगत् मोहित हो गया।
