तैरियं पृथिवी सर्वा सपर्वतवनाकरा । आपूर्यते महाराज सलिलौघपरिप्लुता,महाराज! उनके वर्षा करनेपर पर्वत, वन और खानोंसहित यह सारी पृथ्वी अगाध जलराशिमें ड्ूबकर सब ओरसे भर जाती है

The verse highlights the overwhelming power of natural forces and the way the world is governed by larger rhythms (such as rains and floods), inviting humility and attentiveness to cosmic order—an important backdrop for dharmic reflection in the epic.
Vaiśampāyana describes to the king that when the rain-bringing beings cause rainfall, the whole earth—mountains, forests, and mineral-bearing regions—becomes inundated by torrents, emphasizing the scale of the deluge.
