लोकसमुत्पत्ति-वर्णनम् तथा इक्ष्वाकुवंश-प्रशंसा (Cosmogony and Ikshvaku Genealogy as Counsel to Rama)
अनरण्यान्महाबाहुः पृथु राजा बभूव ह।तस्मात्पृथोमेहाराजस्त्रिशङ्कुरुदपद्यत।।।।स सत्यवचनाद् वीर: सशरीरो दिवं गतः।
anaraṇyān mahābāhuḥ pṛthu rājā babhūva ha |
tasmāt pṛthor mahārājas triśaṅkur udapadyata ||
sa satyavacanād vīraḥ saśarīro divaṃ gataḥ |
From Anaraṇya was born the mighty-armed king Pṛthu; from Pṛthu, the great king Triśaṅku was born. That heroic Triśaṅku, by the power of his truthfulness, went to heaven with his body.
Mighty-armed king Prithu was the son of Anaranya and Prithu was father of the great king Trishanku. That heroic Trishanku, on account of his truthfulness ascended the heaven with his physical body.
Satya as dharma: truthfulness (keeping one’s word) is presented as a force that elevates a person beyond ordinary limits.
The speaker cites ancestral exempla, moving through the Ikṣvāku line, to underscore the tradition of virtue and truth.
Triśaṅku’s satya-niṣṭhā (steadfastness in truth), portrayed as spiritually transformative.
