Bṛhaspati and Indra were walking on gleefully. On their way they saw this wonderful person of huge size.

He was quiet and composed and very refulgent with matted hair on his head. He was fair-complexioned with long arms and wide chest.

अथो पुरंदरोऽपृच्छत्स्वाधिकारेण दुर्मदः ॥ पुरुषं तं स्वमार्गांतस्थितमज्ञाय शंकरम् ॥९॥
He was terrible to look at. Without realising that the person who stood there blocking their path was Śiva himself, Indra who was proud of his authority said to him.

Indra said: O, who are you? Where have you come from? What is your name? Tell me truly. Is the lord Śiva in his apartment or has he gone anywhere?
