サンジャヤは言った。「おお、カウラヴャよ。そこにある第三の山は、光輝に満ちた『クムダ（Kumuda）』と名づけられた山である。」この宇宙地理の列挙において、語り手はクシャドヴィーパ（Kuśadvīpa）の聖なる地勢をさらに描き、名を与えられた峰々を世界の秩序と構造を示す標として掲げている。

Educational Q&A
The verse reinforces a worldview where the cosmos is intelligible and ordered: named mountains and regions are not random details but part of a structured sacred geography, supporting the epic’s broader concern with dharma as order—social, moral, and cosmic.
Sañjaya is describing the features of Kuśadvīpa and enumerating its principal mountains; here he identifies the third mountain as the radiant peak named Kumuda while addressing Dhṛtarāṣṭra as ‘Kauravya’.
