Vidīrṇa (विदीर्ण) refers to “piercing (of the ears)” (due to a loud noise), according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.17 (“The fight between Viṣṇu and Jalandhara”).—Accordingly, as Sanatkumāra narrated to Vyāsa: “[...] On seeing the Asuras afflicted by the gusts of wind Jalandhara the great Asura became furious and terrified all the gods. Seeing Viṣṇu suppressing and pounding the Asuras, the lips of the heroic Asura throbbed and he rushed at Viṣṇu to fight with him. The king of Asuras shouted and roared terrifying both the gods and the Asuras. On hearing it, the ears became pierced (vidīrṇa) [karṇā vidīrṇāḥ śravaṇāttataḥ]. [...]”.
