Explanation

In the legendary account of Shankara's visit to Kashi (Varanasi), Lord Shiva appeared as a hunter (Kirata) to test Shankara. In this divine play, the four Vedas assumed the form of four dogs accompanying the hunter. This story, known as the 'Kirata-Arjuna' motif in Hindu mythology, symbolizes how divine wisdom can appear in unexpected forms.
