In his bodily strength and in the strength of his senses, Mahārāja Pṛthu was as strong as the wind, which can go anywhere and everywhere. As far as his intolerance was concerned, he was just like the all-powerful Rudra expansion of Lord Śiva, or Sadāśiva. ।। 4-22-60 ।।
english translation
महाराज पृथु अपनी शारीरिक बल तथा ऐन्द्रिय शक्ति में वायु के समान बलशाली थे, जो कहीं भी तथा सर्वत्र आ जा सकता है। अपनी असह्यता में वे शिवजी या सदाशिव के अंश सर्वशक्तिमान रुद्र के समान थे। ।। ४-२२-६० ।।
