जगद्व्याकुलतां यातं प्रलयागमशंकया । क्षणात्प्रशांतनिर्ह्रादं ज्वलदुल्कासमाचितम्
jagadvyākulatāṃ yātaṃ pralayāgamaśaṃkayā | kṣaṇātpraśāṃtanirhrādaṃ jvaladulkāsamācitam
Le monde fut saisi de trouble, craignant l’approche de la dissolution. Mais en un instant le fracas s’apaisa, et le ciel se trouva jonché de météores flamboyants.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta), narrating to the sages (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa context)
Scene: A battlefield sky suddenly quiets after thunder; the firmament is crowded with blazing meteors, while below, armies pause in dread as if pralaya were imminent.
Even when events resemble pralaya, divine order prevails; disturbance is temporary when dharma’s purpose is fulfilled.
No tīrtha is mentioned in this verse.
None.
