Shloka 27
Divyāstrāṇāṃ Pradarśana-nivāraṇa
Display of Divine Weapons and Its Prohibition
पुन: प्रकाशम भवत् तमसा ग्रस्यते पुन: । भवत्यदर्शनो लोक: पुनरप्सु निमज्जति,इससे कभी तो प्रकाश छा जाता था और कभी सब कुछ अन्धकारमें विलीन हो जाता था। कभी सम्पूर्ण जगत् अदृश्य हो जाता और कभी जलमें डूब जाता था
punaḥ prakāśam abhavat tamasā grasyate punaḥ | bhavaty adarśano lokaḥ punar apsu nimajjati ||
アルジュナは言った。「再び光が満ち、再び闇に呑まれる。ある時は世界のすべてが見え失せ、またある時は水の中へ沈み戻るかのようであった。」

Arjuna describes a terrifying, fluctuating scene: illumination appears and is repeatedly engulfed by darkness; the world alternately becomes unseen and seems to sink into waters, as if the environment is undergoing a sudden, ominous transformation.
