स मुष्टिं पातयामास हृदये दैत्यपुङ्गवः । देव्यास्तं चापि सा देवी तलेनोरस्यताडयत् ॥ २० ॥
sa muṣhṭiṁ pātayāmāsa hṛidaye daityapuṅgavaḥ devyāstaṁ chāpi sā devī talenorasyatāḍayat
Translation
That bull among daityas brought his fist down on the Devi's heart, and the Devi struck him on the chest with her palm.
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
उस दैत्यराज ने देवी की छाती में मुक्का मारा, और देवी ने भी उसकी छाती पर एक चाँटा जड़ दिया।
Commentary
A strangely intimate moment: fist against palm. The war of cosmic weapons has become hand-to-hand.
