Namami Thvam Ananthashakthim Paresham Sarvathmanam Kevalam Japthimathram | Vishwotpaththi Sthana Samrodhahethum  Yaththath Bhrama Bhramalingam Prashantham ||

Shuka Bhramam speaks “ Oh! Rajan, once Maharishi Narada visited Dwaraka and enquired about Aniruddha.  The Supreme Lord Krishna who is aware of all kept quiet.  Balarama realized that Anirudhdha was imprisoned by Banasura from Maharishi Narada, he could not control his rage.  Thus, Lord Krishna and Balarama accompanied by a huge army of warriors led by Pradhyumna rushed to Shonithapuram. Pradhyumna shot an arrow on the flag post of Shonithapuram and broken into pieces, Banasura rose from his seat with great enthusiasm and approached Lord Mahadeva with a request to help in the battle.  Thus, one side of the army led by Pradhyumna, Krishna and Balarama, and the opposite side of the army led by Lord Karthikeya, Lord Mahadeva mounted on a celestial bull, Pramathaganas, and Banasura entered in a fierce battle. All the deities, Lord Bhrama, Siddhas, Charana, Gandharva, Apsaras, Yaksha, and illustrious Rishis assembled to witness the battle.  In that vicious battle, Pradhyumna defeated Karthikeya.  Lord Mahadeva had a fierce battle against Lord Krishna, the two equivalent forces fought each other using various Astra and Shastras, finally, they both have created Jwara/who has the same appearance of Mahadeva and Krishna respectively.  The Jwaras fought against each other and found it difficult to withstand. Jwara eulogized supreme Lord Mahadeva “ Oh! Lord I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Paresha, who resides as a soul in living beings, can be experienced with intense devotion and faith, you are the source of creation of the Universe and its living beings, you are supreme Bhramam, you have endless prowess symbolizes serenity.” Whoever recites or listens to the Jwarasthuthi would get rid of the troubles and fears of Jwara.  Rudra eulogizes supreme Lord “ Oh! Bhagavan, Parambhrama, you are not easily attainable, you are eulogized by Veda, you are serene, and unblemished Oh! Bhagavan, your limbs represents Agni, Vayu, Ocean, and your eyes represent Surya and Chandra.  You are supreme Purusha, you are primordial and flawless.  Oh! Bhagavan, an ignorant get attached to the wife and children, wealth, and material world due to the influence of your Maya, eventually they get sunk deep down in the unfathomable ocean of worldly existence.  Therefore, whoever forgets to surrender at the lotus feet of the Supreme Lord, even after obtaining superior birth as a human, would heave themselves to constant miseries and sorrows, remains Athmavanchaka.  Whoever forgets the presence of supreme Lord as a soul in them, and greedily chases sensual pleasures thereby consume toxic poison of worldly matters and attachments, and eventually they refuse the nectar of immortality.   I, Lord Bhrama, deities, illustrious Rishis and Sages have already surrendered our hearts, mind, and intellect to the supreme Lord who resides as a soul in us.  We have understood that you are the greatest wealth, hence we are sung in praise of you.” In this way, Lord Rudra praised the Vishwaroopam of supreme Lord who has all-pervading nature."
