utpatsyati kule rājā tvadīye kurunaṃdana | sārpaṃ kalevaraṃ dṛṣṭvā praśnaistvāmuddhariṣyati
ឱ អ្នកជាក្តីរីករាយនៃកុរុ! ស្តេចមួយអង្គនឹងកើតឡើងក្នុងវង្សរបស់អ្នកឯង។ ពេលឃើញរាងកាយជាពស់របស់អ្នក គាត់នឹងសង្គ្រោះអ្នកចេញពីសភាពនោះ ដោយសំណួរទាំងឡាយ។
Agastya (deduced from immediate narrative: the ṛṣi responding after Nahuṣa’s plea)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Nahuṣa (addressed as Kuru-nandana)
Scene: Agastya foretells: a future Kuru-descended king will see the serpent-bodied Nahuṣa and, through questioning, deliver him.
Deliverance can come through dharmic inquiry and right questioning, guided by providence and sage-blessing.
The prophecy is narrated within the Prabhāsakṣetra Māhātmya, part of the Skanda Purāṇa’s glorification of Prabhāsa.
No ritual is prescribed; the means indicated is praśna (inquiry) leading to liberation from a curse.
