The Lamentation Concerning Yama
यया रुक्मांगदो जातो मल्लिपेमर्ज्जनाय वै । नेदं व्यवस्थितं देव क्षितौ केनापि भूभुजा ॥ १५ ॥
yayā rukmāṃgado jāto mallipemarjjanāya vai | nedaṃ vyavasthitaṃ deva kṣitau kenāpi bhūbhujā || 15 ||
जिसके द्वारा रुक्माङ्गद उत्पन्न हुआ—वह निश्चय ही मल्लिपे के मल (अपवित्रता) के मार्जन हेतु था। हे देव! ऐसी व्यवस्था पृथ्वी पर किसी भी राजा ने नहीं की।

It emphasizes daiva-vidhāna—events like the birth of a righteous figure are portrayed as divinely purposed for purification and restoration of dharma, beyond merely human political planning.
By presenting purification as divinely guided, the verse supports a bhakti-oriented outlook: surrender to the Lord’s higher arrangement and trust that dharmic outcomes unfold through divine will rather than human control alone.
No direct Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa, Jyotiṣa, or Kalpa) instruction appears; the practical takeaway is the Purāṇic dharma principle that purification (śuddhi/marjana) is a key aim of sacred narratives and tirtha-oriented practice.
