Jayapataka Swami: You see Lord Śiva, is a guṇa avatāra, in the mode of ignorance. Naturally in that aspect he can do things unusual. At the same time, we know that his overriding quality is devotion to Hari. And in this pastime we read, he begged at the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa, for a place to stay, for forgiveness. And Kṛṣṇa was pleased with him. And gave him a place to stay, in the Śrī Kṣetra, in Bhuvaneśvara, which is a part of the Śrī Kṣetra.
