Because of the disturbance of the wind, the three worlds became devoid of Vedic recitation and vaṣaṭ-calls, inactive, bereft of dharma, as if stationed in hell.

उत्तरकाण्डम्/सर्गः_३५7.35.p22824

Sanskrit · 7.35.p22824

ततः प्रजाः सगन्धर्वाः सदेवासुरमानुषाः । प्रजापतिं समाधावन्दुःखिताश्च सुखेच्छया ।। ७.३५.५३ ।।

Sanskrit · 7.35.p22825

ऊचुः प्राञ्जलयो देवा महोदरनिभोदराः । त्वया नु भगवन्सृष्टाः प्रजानाथ चतुर्विधाः ।। ७.३५.५४ ।।

English · Meaning

The gods, with folded hands and with great, prominent bellies, spoke: “O Blessed Lord, O Lord of creatures, these fourfold beings were indeed created by you.” The exact compound महोदरनिभोदराः literally describes bellies resembling great bellies; its more specific referent is uncertain.

By you this Wind was given to us as the lord of life. Why is it that he, having become the lord of our vital breaths, today [acts thus] toward us, O best of beings?
