FAQs
Varuṇa’s domain represents a regulated cosmic jurisdiction—an ordered space where disruptive forces (like the Daityas’ targets) are restrained to preserve universal balance.
Through mythic action—commanding the Daityas to seal and confine the “evil-minded one”—the text dramatizes how disorder is contained under higher cosmic governance.
