Al ver estos signos, debe comprender que su propia vida se ha menguado. Cuando la nariz se tuerce y en ambos oídos hay un caer y alzarse irregular, son señales del declinar de la vida.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) addressing the sages (deduced)
Scene: A calm but grave diagnostic scene: an elder or physician-like figure observes a person’s face—nose subtly crooked, ears uneven—while the subject contemplates shortened life.
Physical decline is interpreted as a dharmic reminder: use the remaining time for purification, truthfulness, and devotion.
No tīrtha is mentioned.
None; the verse lists bodily nimittas (signs).
