Meaning -
God, in whose three-fold world reside all created objects, is praised for His power, like a dreadful, mountain-roaming tiger, that kills the despicable beings. He punishes the sinners, and preaches to all the vedic knowledge.
-
This verse means, just as a lion keeps under his control other beasts, so does God regulate all the created worlds. The adjectives used in the verse are applicable to God as well. He is मृग: as he controls all living being. He is भीम: as all men are afraid of Him. He is कुचर: as He chastises all the sinful and wicked people. He is गिरिष्ठ: as He is sung and praised in the vedas. सत्व, रजस and तामस are the three-fold varieties of creation, or Earth, Sky and Space, constitute the threefold world in which all living creatures have their habitation.
