قال شَكْرا: «وأنتَ كذلك انظر إلى العالم بهذه النظرة. لا تَقَعْ في دهشةٍ بالنفس ولا في كِبْر. إنَّ السُّلطانَ والنفوذَ لا يستقرّان في المرء استقراراً دائماً، ولا يظلان خاضعين لسيطرةٍ شخصيةٍ على الدوام.»

Educational Q&A

Power and influence are not truly ‘one’s own’; they are contingent and unstable. Therefore one should view the world with clear discernment and avoid self-congratulatory wonder or pride.

Indra (Śakra) instructs the listener to adopt a sober perspective on worldly status, warning that sovereignty and personal impact do not remain permanently under an individual’s control.
