Indradyumna Upākhyāna: On Kīrti, Smṛti, and Restoration
एवं पर्याकुले लोके मर्यादा न भविष्यति । न स्थास्यन्त्युपदेशे च शिष्या विप्रियकारिण:,इस तरह उथल-पुथल मच जानेपर संसारमें कोई मर्यादा नहीं रह जायगी। शिष्य गुरुके उपदेशपर नहीं चलेंगे। वे उलटे उनका अहित करेंगे
evaṁ paryākule loke maryādā na bhaviṣyati | na sthāsyanty upadeśe ca śiṣyā vipriyakāriṇaḥ ||
حين يُقذَف العالم في مثل هذا الاضطراب، لن تبقى حدود للآداب والمراتب. لن يلتزم التلاميذ بوصايا معلميهم؛ بل سيعملون على خلافها، فيجلبون الأذى والسخط على من هداهم.
मार्कण्डेय उवाच
Educational Q&A
Social and moral order (maryādā) depends on respect for rightful instruction and discipline. When society becomes agitated and confused, the guru–śiṣya bond collapses: students stop following guidance and even act in ways that harm their teachers, signaling a broader decline of dharma.
Mārkaṇḍeya is describing the consequences of a world plunged into upheaval: established norms will not hold, and even the traditional relationship of disciples adhering to a teacher’s counsel will break down, with students becoming contrary and harmful.
