Educational Q&A
The verse teaches karmic accountability: catastrophic outcomes arise from one’s own wrongful actions. Ethical failure carries consequences that mature in time, making personal agency central to destiny.
Lośa foretells that the sons of King Sagara will soon meet a terrible mass destruction, and he explicitly attributes this impending calamity to their own deeds rather than to mere chance.
