अधर्म्याद्धर्म्मरहिता मंदभाग्यधनायुषः । कृतकालाभिगमने धर्मोयं गृहिणः परः
adharmyāddharmmarahitā maṃdabhāgyadhanāyuṣaḥ | kṛtakālābhigamane dharmoyaṃ gṛhiṇaḥ paraḥ
ومن اقترانٍ غيرِ دَرْمِيٍّ تنشأُ ذريةٌ خاليةٌ من الدَّهَرْمَا، ضعيفةَ الحظِّ والمالِ وطولِ العمر. لذلك أُعلِنَ أنَّ اقترابَ ربِّ البيتِ من زوجتِه في الوقتِ المعيَّن وحدَه هو أسمى واجباتِه.
Sūta (deduced, Brāhma Khaṇḍa dharma-narration context)
Scene: A householder restrains himself, turning from impulse toward a household shrine and calendar/pañcāṅga, honoring proper time; shadowy figures symbolize adharma’s consequences on offspring’s vitality.
Self-restraint and timing aligned with dharma are portrayed as essential to the moral and spiritual health of family life.
No tīrtha is mentioned; the verse is a normative dharma instruction within Dharmāraṇya.
The prescription is ṛtukāla-abhigamana—marital approach at the proper/appointed time—as a key gṛhastha duty.
