मणिं स्यमंतकं चैव यः स सत्राजितोऽभवत् । स कथं स्मारयामास सात्यकिर्मधुसूदनम्
maṇiṃ syamaṃtakaṃ caiva yaḥ sa satrājito'bhavat | sa kathaṃ smārayāmāsa sātyakirmadhusūdanam
જેણે સ્યમંતક મણિ ધારણ કરી હતી તે સત્રાજિત—તેને સાત્યકી દ્વારા મધુસૂદનને તે વાત કેવી રીતે યાદ કરાવી?
Unspecified narrator (continuing Prabhāsa-kṣetra Māhātmya narration)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa
Type: kshetra
Scene: Mention of Syamantaka: a radiant jewel imagined as a sun-like gem; Satrājit’s name invoked as Sātyaki prompts Kṛṣṇa to recall the old controversy; faces tighten as old stories return.
Old disputes and remembered grievances can reignite conflict; dharma urges restraint and reconciliation before fate hardens.
The narrative is situated in Prabhāsa-kṣetra, whose Māhātmya frames these recollections as part of a sacred-history arc.
None in this verse; it references a prior episode (Syamantaka jewel) as a catalyst in conversation.
