समाधेश्चलितस्सोऽभूद्भक्ताधीनोऽपि नान्यथा ॥ वसिष्ठादीन्मुनीन्सप्त सस्मार सूतिकृद्धरः ॥७॥

He became distracted from spiritual contemplation. A deity subservient to His devotees cannot be otherwise. Śiva, the cause of great enjoyment and protection remembered the seven celestial sages, Vasiṣṭha and others.
