मैत्रेयागमनम् — The Arrival of Maitreya and the Admonition to Duryodhana
स्पष्टाष्टदंष्टं ताम्राक्ष॑ प्रदीप्तोर्ध्वशिरोरुहम् । सार्करश्मितडिच्चक्रं सबलाकमिवाम्बुदम्,उसकी आठ दाढ़ें स्पष्ट दिखायी देती थीं, आँखें क्रोधसे लाल हो रही थीं एवं सिरके बाल ऊपरकी ओर उठे हुए और प्रज्वलित-से जान पड़ते थे। उसे देखकर ऐसा मालूम होता था, मानो सूर्यकी किरणों, विद्युन्मण्डल और बकपंक्तियोंके साथ मेघ शोभा पा रहा हो
spaṣṭāṣṭadaṃṣṭraṃ tāmrākṣaṃ pradīptordhvaśiroruham | sārkaraśmitadiċċakraṃ sabalākam ivāmbudam ||
Vidura said: “He appeared with eight clearly visible fangs; his eyes were copper-red with wrath; and the hair on his head stood upright, seeming to blaze. Beholding him, one felt as though a cloud had taken on splendor—shot through with the sun’s rays, ringed with lightning, and accompanied by lines of cranes.”
