Shloka 83

Adhyaya 40: Kali-yuga Lakshana, Yuga-sandhyamsha, and the Re-emergence of Dharma

Devanagari script

एवं युगाद्युगस्येह संतानं तु परस्परम् वर्तते ह व्यवच्छेदाद् यावन्मन्वन्तरक्षयः

Transliteration

evaṃ yugādyugasyeha saṃtānaṃ tu parasparam vartate ha vyavacchedād yāvanmanvantarakṣayaḥ

Translation

Así, en este mundo, la sucesión de un yuga tras otro continúa en secuencia mutua, avanzando en divisiones medidas hasta la consumación de un Manvantara. En este fluir ordenado del tiempo, Pati—el Señor Śiva—permanece como fundamento inmutable, mientras los paśu (las almas) recorren ciclos recurrentes bajo los lazos (pāśa) del karma.
