Chapter 14: Divyāstra-Prayoga and Ṛṣi Intervention (दिव्यास्त्रप्रयोगः ऋषिसमागमश्च)
ते त्वस्त्रतेजसी लोकांस्तापयन्ती व्यवस्थिते । महर्षी सहितौ तत्र दर्शयामासतुस्तदा
te tv astratejasī lokāṁs tāpayantī vyavasthite | maharṣī sahitau tatra darśayām āsatus tadā ||
তেওঁলোক দুয়ো তাত স্থিৰ হৈ অস্ত্ৰ-তেজে জ্বলি লোকসমূহক দহন কৰি আছিল। তেতিয়াই সেই ঠাইতে দুয়ো মহর্ষি একেলগে আত্মপ্ৰকাশ কৰিলে।
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Unchecked martial power (astratejas) can become a cosmic threat; dharma requires restraint and higher wisdom to intervene when violence exceeds moral limits.
Two beings, blazing with weapon-like energy and causing widespread burning/affliction, are described as standing firm; then two great seers appear together in that place, signaling an intervention to address the dangerous escalation.
