The title page pictorially illustrates another incident from the Sivapurāņa. Once Brahmã woke up the sleeping Vişnu and accosted Him "child, wake up." At this, Visnu grew angry; and both decided to fight out the issue. The Gods grow frightened at the unpleasant turn of events, and prayed to Paramasiva to put a stop to the duel. Paramasiva thereupon appeared on the scene in the form of a Jyotirlinga standing in full enveloping heaven and earth. Brahma and Vinnu were now convinced of another being greater to them. selves, stopped fighting and looked wonder-stricken at the Jyotirlinga.
