Adhyaya 52 — The Manifestation of Nilalohita (Rudra) and the Allocation of His Names, Abodes, Consorts, and Lineages
कथ्यन्ते बहुशश्चैते पिता पुत्रत्रयञ्च यत् ।
एवमेकोनपञ्चाशद् दुर्जयाः परिकीर्तिताः ॥
kathyante bahuśaś caite pitā putra-trayaṃ ca yat | evam ekona-pañcāśad durjayāḥ parikīrtitāḥ ||
これらは繰り返し語られる—すなわち父と三人の子である。ゆえに「ドゥルジャヤー(Durjayā)」は四十九と数えられる。

Repetition (bahuśaḥ) is a feature of oral sacred pedagogy: it stabilizes memory and authority. The text also models a taxonomic way of thinking—classifying beings into countable groups within cosmic order.
Sarga-oriented enumeration and Vaṃśa-style listing, typical of Purāṇic cosmography and genealogy.
‘Durjaya’ (hard to conquer) can be read psychologically as the stubborn forces within prakṛti; enumerating them is a way of making the overwhelming intelligible and therefore governable by knowledge (jñāna).
