Asṛṅmukha (असृङ्मुख) refers to one with “blood rushing to his face”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.2.36. Accordingly, as Brahmā narrated to Nārada:—“Indra mocked at Viṣṇu who was engrossed in his own arguments. He, the bearer of the thunderbolt, was desirous of fighting Vīrabhadra along with the other Devas. [...] Seeing their enterprise, Dakṣa with blood rushing to his face [viz., asṛṅmukha] in his excitement approached them along with his wife and spoke”.
