A person’s actions can be so weighty that they resonate beyond human society and are spoken of as impacting the divine order; greatness is measured not only by power but by the moral and cosmic consequence of one’s deeds.
Vyāsa addresses a heroic figure with honorific praise, acknowledging that the person has performed a ‘great deed’ connected with the gods—an evaluative statement that frames the action as significant within the larger cosmic and ethical landscape of the Mausala Parva.
