The Rise of Soma-vaṁśa: Budha’s Birth and Purūravā–Urvaśī; The Origin of Karma-kāṇḍa in Tretā-yuga
ऐलोऽपि शयने जायामपश्यन् विमना इव । तच्चित्तो विह्वल: शोचन् बभ्रामोन्मत्तवन्महीम् ॥ ३२ ॥
ailo ’pi śayane jāyām apaśyan vimanā iva tac-citto vihvalaḥ śocan babhrāmonmattavan mahīm
床に妻の姿がないのを見て、アイラ(プルーラヴァー)は深く嘆き悲しんだ。彼女への執着で心は乱れ、泣きながら狂人のように大地をさまよい歩いた。
This verse shows Purūravā’s mind becoming overwhelmed and unstable when separated from his wife—illustrating that intense attachment (moha) produces lamentation and loss of inner balance.
Because he could not find his wife where he expected her (on the bed), his consciousness became fully absorbed in her, and in grief he roamed the earth in agitation.
Notice how fixation on one person or object can destabilize the mind; cultivate steadiness through remembrance of the Lord, disciplined duties, and detachment so emotions don’t drive you into anxiety.
