तारकस्य वचः श्रुत्वा मुचुकुंदोऽभ्यभाषत । मया हतोऽसि दैत्येंद्र नान्यो भवितुमर्हसि
tārakasya vacaḥ śrutvā mucukuṃdo'bhyabhāṣata | mayā hato'si daityeṃdra nānyo bhavitumarhasi
ターラカの言葉を聞いてムチュクンダは答えた。「ダイティヤの王よ、お前は我が手により討たれた。ほかの結末はあり得ぬ。」
Mucukunda
Tirtha: Kedāra (Kedārakṣetra)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Mucukunda answers calmly yet forcefully: ‘You are slain by me, lord of daityas; it cannot be otherwise,’ projecting unwavering certainty amid battle.
It conveys steadfastness in duty and the sense of moral inevitability when adharma meets its consequence.
Kedārakhaṇḍa situates the episode within the Kedāra sacred landscape, though this verse is not a phalaśruti.
None.
