विसृष्टराज्यो राजापि विचरन्सकलां महीम् । आयांतीं पृष्ठतोऽपश्यत्पिशाचीं घोररूपिणीम्
visṛṣṭarājyo rājāpi vicaransakalāṃ mahīm | āyāṃtīṃ pṛṣṭhato'paśyatpiśācīṃ ghorarūpiṇīm
Setelah melepaskan kerajaannya, sang raja mengembara di seluruh bumi; di belakangnya ia melihat seorang piśācī mendekat, berwujud amat mengerikan.
Narrator (context not explicit in excerpt; likely Purāṇic narrator)
Sin is not merely abstract; Purāṇic storytelling depicts it as a pursuing force—one cannot outrun karma without purification.
No specific site is named in this verse; it introduces the pilgrimage/expiation trajectory.
None; it narrates the king’s wandering and the appearance of the pursuing entity.
