अध्यूढायाश्व यद् दुःखं साक्षिभिविहतस्य च । एतानि वै समान्याहुर्दु:खानि त्रिदिवेश्वरा:
adhyūḍhāyāśva yad duḥkhaṃ sākṣibhivihatasya ca | etāni vai samāny āhur duḥkhāni tridiveśvarāḥ ||
قال كاشيابا: «ألمُ المرأة التي أُخِذَت قسرًا عروسًا، وألمُ من أُسقِطَ أمام الشهود—إن سادةَ السماء يقرّرون أن هذين العذابين سواءٌ في طبيعتهما.»

Educational Q&A
Publicly witnessed injustice and the violation of a woman through forcible taking are both presented as grievous harms; the verse stresses that certain wrongs are intrinsically comparable in moral weight because they destroy dignity, safety, and social trust.
Kāśyapa is speaking in a didactic context, classifying and comparing kinds of suffering recognized by higher authorities (the gods), to underline how serious these forms of wrongdoing are within dharma discourse.
