And, among the Rudras I am Sankara; among the Yakshas and Rakshasas, the Lord of wealth (Kubera); among the Vasus I am Pavaka (fire); and among the (seven) mountains I am the Meru.

Among the Rudras I am Shankara; among the yakshas and rakshasas, the lord of wealth. Among the Vasus I am fire, and among peaks I am Meru.

The Rudras are a group of fierce deities, and Shankara, a name of Shiva meaning the one who brings welfare, is foremost among them. The yakshas and rakshasas are semi-divine beings of the wilds, and their lord is Kubera, keeper of wealth. The Vasus are eight elemental deities, and among them Pavaka, fire, the purifier, stands out. Among mountains Krishna is Meru, the golden peak at the centre of the world in Puranic geography. The verse ranges from the fearsome to the wealthy to the elemental to the very axis of the earth.
