योग–सांख्यसमन्वयः, रथोपमा, व्यक्त–अव्यक्तविवेकः
Yoga–Sāṃkhya Synthesis, Chariot Allegory, and the Vyakta–Avyakta Distinction
न जात्वकाले कुसुमं कुत: फलं पपात वृक्षात् पवनेरितादपि | रसप्रदा: कामदुघाश्न धेनवो न दारुणा वाग् विचचार कस्यचित्
śakra uvāca | na jātvakāle kusumaṁ kutaḥ phalaṁ papāta vṛkṣāt pavaneritād api | rasapradāḥ kāmadughāś ca dhenavo na dāruṇā vāg vicacāra kasyacit ||
釈迦羅は言った。「その頃、夭折などということは問題にすらならなかった。烈風にあおられ木々が揺さぶられても、花は季節外れに落ちることがない—まして実が落ちようはずもない。牛たちは乳などの滋養の汁を与える者であり、まことに如意の牛のごとく、望むままに乳を出した。誰の口からも、荒々しい言葉や残酷な言葉は決して生まれなかった。」

Educational Q&A
The verse portrays an ideal moral order where nature and society remain in harmony: nothing occurs ‘out of time’ (akāla), resources are abundant and benevolent (kāmadughā dhenavaḥ), and ethical restraint in speech prevails (no dāruṇā vāk). It implies that dharma sustains both ecological balance and human conduct.
Indra (Śakra) is describing a bygone age of righteousness and well-being: even strong winds do not cause untimely loss in nature, cows freely provide milk, and people do not utter harsh words—signs of a world governed by dharma and orderly time.
