वन्दितौ च धुतधर्मधारिणा तौ क्रमौ गुणधरेण शास्तुनो ।
लोकनाथचितकाष्ठ तेजसा वायुवेगविधुतेन दीप्यति ॥ २६ ॥
vanditau ca dhutadharmadhāriṇā tau kramau guṇadhareṇa śāstuno |
lokanāthacitakāṣṭha tejasā vāyuvegavidhutena dīpyati || 26 ||
As soon as the Master’s feet had been saluted by the pious and virtuous Kashyapa, the funeral pyre of the Lord of the world went up in flames, fanned by a gust of wind. (26)
