Adhyaya 63 — The Birth of Svarocis and the Rescue of Manoramā: The Astra-Heart and the Healing of Curses
स चापि सहितस्तन्व्या सदुद्यानन्तदा ययौ ।
कन्याकायुगलं यत्र तच्छापोत्थगदातुरम् ॥
sa cāpi sahitas tanvyā sadudyānaṃ tadā yayau / kanyakāyugalaṃ yatra tacchāpotthagadāturam
وهو (سڤاروتشيصا)، مصحوبًا بالفتاة رشيقة الخصر، مضى حينئذٍ إلى ذلك البستان حيث كانت فتاتان مضطجعتين، تعانيان مرضًا نشأ من تلك اللعنة.
The narrative treats suffering as something to be approached, not avoided; accompaniment (sahita) signals shared responsibility and active compassion toward the afflicted.
Manvantara episode: the curse motif and its remediation are typical of Purāṇic exempla embedded in Manu-era chronicles.
The ‘garden’ can symbolize the inner field of life (saṃsāra’s cultivated space); curse-born disease represents latent karmic afflictions that surface within that field and require knowledge to uproot.
