Accordingly as Brahmā narrated to Nārada:—“[...] on hearing these words of Dakṣa, Bhṛgu and others reproached Śiva. After duly saluting Śiva along with the devas, Nandin, the attendant of Śiva who had heard the words of Dakṣa, was very furious and rolled his eyes (lālākṣa). With an intention to curse him, he immediately spoke to Dakṣa”.
