Translation
The assembly along with the fire-gods, except for Brahmā and Śiva, rose from their seats, influenced by that radiance.
Personal Guidance
Everyone stood for Dakṣa except Brahmā and Śiva — those secure in their position do not need to perform respect on demand. The mature don't stand at every brightness; they stand for what matters.
Reflection Questions
- Whom am I expecting to honor me, and why does it sting when they don't?
- Do I confuse social ritual with actual respect?
