• dundubhayaḥ — kettledrums
  Deep-voiced sacrificial drums. Their resounding marks the moment of cosmic approval — the Bhāgavatam's standard signal that what just happened was right.
• mumucuḥ — they released
  Perfect of √muc — the same root as mokṣa. Heaven 'releases' flowers; Gauḍīyas catch the small echo: real worship gives release, even the demigods loosen what they hold.
• puṣpa-varṣāṇi — downpours of flowers
  Compound: puṣpa (flower) + varṣa (rain). The repeated motif of this section. The Bhāgavatam is unembarrassed about beauty as theology's signature.
• deva-ṛṣi-pitṛ-mānavāḥ — demigods, sages, forefathers, humans
  Quadruple compound — four classes united in one act. Vaiṣṇava dharma unifies what other frames separate; the avabhṛtha is sociology made vertical.

When earthly drums and divine drums sound together, it is not coincidence — it is acknowledgement. The two worlds agree, briefly, that this man's offering is worth answering. The acknowledgement will not last; envy is already across the room.
