When the holder of Pinaka becomes angry and assuming a terrible mien merely casts his eye upon deity, Asura, Gandharva, or snake, that individual cannot obtain peace of mind by taking shelter in the recesses of even a mountain cave. When that lord of all creatures, viz., Daksha, desirous of celebrating a sacrifice, spread his sacrifice out, the brave Bhava, yielding to anger (at Daksha's slight of him), pierced the Sacrifice. Shooting his arrow from his terrible bow, he roared aloud.
यांश्च घोरेण रूपेण पश्येत् क्रुद्धः पिनाकधृत्। न सुरा नासुरा लोके न गन्धर्वा न पन्नगाः॥ कुपिते सुखमेधन्ते तस्मिन्नपि गुहागताः। प्रजापतेश्च दक्षस्य यजतो वितते क्रतौ॥ विव्याध कुपितो यज्ञं निर्भयस्तु भवस्तदा। धनुषा बाणमुत्सृज्य सघोषं विननाद च॥
