The verse highlights dharmic restoration through measured affection: when order returns after suffering, one should honor relationships with propriety (yathāvat) and self-possessed joy rather than uncontrolled display.
Bṛhadaśva describes Nala’s renewed splendor and his reunion with Damayantī and their two children—embracing them and rejoicing appropriately, signaling the healing of the family after separation.
