The Rise of Soma-vaṁśa: Budha’s Birth and Purūravā–Urvaśī; The Origin of Karma-kāṇḍa in Tretā-yuga
अन्तर्वत्नीमुपालक्ष्य देवीं स प्रययौ पुरीम् । पुनस्तत्र गतोऽब्दान्ते उर्वशीं वीरमातरम् ॥ ४० ॥
antarvatnīm upālakṣya devīṁ sa prayayau purīm punas tatra gato ’bdānte urvaśīṁ vīra-mātaram
Understanding that Urvasi was pregnant, Pururava returned to his palace. At the end of the year, there at Kuruksetra, he again obtained the association of Urvasi, who was then the mother of a heroic son.
It states that Purūrava noticed Urvaśī was pregnant, returned to his city, and then came back after a year to meet her as the mother of his heroic son.
The verse indicates a natural shift from their meeting to royal responsibilities—Purūrava departs to his capital, then returns later, marking the passage of time leading to the birth of a valiant son.
Even amid strong relationships and intense experiences, one must honor time, duty, and responsibility—returning to commitments while remaining mindful of life’s evolving phases.
