Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 6
एवं वियति ते सर्वे स्पर्द्धमानाः परस्परम् । दृश्यंते द्विगुणीभूता जनविभ्रमकारकाः
evaṃ viyati te sarve sparddhamānāḥ parasparam | dṛśyaṃte dviguṇībhūtā janavibhramakārakāḥ
এইভাবে আকাশে তারা সকলেই যেন পরস্পরের সঙ্গে প্রতিদ্বন্দ্বিতা করছে—দ্বিগুণ হয়ে দৃশ্যমান হল, আর জনসাধারণকে বিভ্রান্ত করল।
Sūta (contextual continuation)
Scene: A doubled sky where twin sets of luminaries seem to ‘compete’; below, crowds look upward in confusion—some praying, some pointing, some fleeing—capturing social bewilderment under a surreal firmament.
