O Lord Śiva, may the demigods and the priests whose limbs have been broken by your soldiers recover from the injuries by your grace.
Gauḍīya Ācāryas
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
O Śiva! May the devatās whose limbs were injured by your weapons and stones, favored by you, quickly recover their health! O Śiva (manyu)! Anāturam means “healed.”
Personal Guidance
Brahmā asks Śiva to heal those whose limbs his own soldiers broke. The mature step after victory is not gloating but personally tending to the wounded on the losing side.
Reflection Questions
  • Whom have I 'won against' that I now have the opportunity — and duty — to help recover?
  • What does it cost me to extend healing to someone my anger genuinely hurt?
