Translation
Goddess Umā, seeing the sage, addressed Śiva: My lord! See this learned brāhmaṇa, whose body, mind and senses are undisturbed.
Personal Guidance
Uma sees the sage motionless in trance and gently points him out to Siva. The Devi's attention notices the absorbed devotee. We are watched over, even when we don't notice the watchers.
Reflection Questions
- Who are the watchful presences in my spiritual life, even unseen?
- Does sensing their watch reassure me — or sober me?
