एतस्मिन्नंतरे बुद्ध्वा मद्यमत्तास्ततः स्त्रियः । उवाच नारदः सांबमस्मिंस्तिष्ठ कुमारक
etasminnaṃtare buddhvā madyamattāstataḥ striyaḥ | uvāca nāradaḥ sāṃbamasmiṃstiṣṭha kumāraka
એ સમયે સ્ત્રીઓ મદ્યથી મત્ત થઈ ગઈ છે એમ જાણી નારદે સાંબને કહ્યું—“કુમારક, અહીં જ રહેજે.”
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) narrating
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: (Not specified in provided excerpt)
Scene: Women, now visibly intoxicated, sway and laugh with loosened decorum; Nārada, composed and luminous, turns to Sāmba and instructs him to remain, his gesture firm and protective.
The text signals a dharmic caution: intoxication clouds judgment, and a sage intervenes to avert impropriety.
The episode unfolds within Prabhāsa-kṣetra’s māhātmya narrative setting.
None directly; it functions as ethical narrative guidance rather than ritual instruction.
