diśaḥ - all directions; nabhaḥ - in the sky; kṣmām - on the surface of the earth; vivarān - within the holes; samudrān - within the seas; lokān - all places; sa-pālān - as well as their rulers; tridivam - the heavenly planets; gataḥ - gone; saḥ - Durvāsā Muni; yataḥ yataḥ - wheresoever; dhāvati - he went; tatra tatra - there, everywhere; sudarśanam - the disc of the Lord; duṣprasaham - extremely fearful; dadarśa - Durvāsā Muni saw.

Just to protect himself, Durvāsā Muni fled everywhere, in all directions — in the sky, on the surface of the earth, in caves, in the ocean, on different planets of the rulers of the three worlds, and even on the heavenly planets — but wherever he went he immediately saw following him the unbearable fire of the Sudarśana cakra.
