निर्जीवमिति तं दृष्ट्वा ततः संत्यज्य दानवः । जयं प्राप्योद्धतं नादं मुक्त्वा संत्रास्य देवताः
nirjīvamiti taṃ dṛṣṭvā tataḥ saṃtyajya dānavaḥ | jayaṃ prāpyoddhataṃ nādaṃ muktvā saṃtrāsya devatāḥ
Al verlo como si estuviera sin vida, el Dānava lo dejó. Creyendo haber obtenido la victoria, soltó un rugido feroz, aterrorizando a los dioses.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta), narrating to the sages (deduced)
Scene: The dānava steps back from Yama’s motionless body, then throws his head back and roars in triumph; devas flinch and scatter, their faces showing terror.
Pride after apparent success is a classic mark of asuric nature; victory claimed too soon invites reversal.
