ब्रह्मणा राजशार्दूल यथापूर्व व्यरोचत । राजसिंह! भगवान् ब्रह्माके द्वारा देवरराजके पदपर अभिषिक्त हो शतक्रतु इन्द्र फिर पूर्ववत् शोभा पाने लगे
brahmaṇā rājaśārdūla yathāpūrva vyarocata | rājasiṃha! bhagavān brahmaṇā devarājasya padapar abhiṣiktaḥ śatakratur indraḥ punaḥ pūrvavat śobhāṃ prāpa (vyarocata) |
ビーシュマは言った。「王たちの中の虎よ、彼は以前のように再び輝いた。王たちの中の獅子よ、福徳あるブラフマーが彼を神々の王の位へと灌頂（アビシェーカ）して立てたとき、百の祭祀を成すインドラは、旧き栄光を取り戻した。」

Educational Q&A
Legitimate authority and restored honor arise from rightful consecration and alignment with cosmic order: when a worthy ruler is properly installed by a higher, dharmic authority, his lost radiance and standing return.
Bhishma describes Indra’s reinstatement: Brahmā performs Indra’s consecration to the office of king of the gods, after which Indra again appears radiant and regains his former glory.
