तं ददर्श हरिर्दूराद्दुर्वारे स्यंदने स्थितम् । चक्रहस्तं गदाशार्ङ्गसंयुतं गरुडध्वजम्
taṃ dadarśa harirdūrāddurvāre syaṃdane sthitam | cakrahastaṃ gadāśārṅgasaṃyutaṃ garuḍadhvajam
ហរិបានឃើញគាត់ពីចម្ងាយ ឈរនៅលើរទេះសង្គ្រាមដែលមិនងាយបំបែកបាន កាន់ចក្រ មានគដា និងធ្នូសារង្គ ព្រមទាំងលើកទង់សញ្ញាគរុឌ។
Narrator (Purāṇic narration)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra (contextual frame)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Naimiṣāraṇya sages
Scene: Hari watches from a distance: Pauṇḍraka stands in a fortified chariot, brandishing a discus and bearing mace and Śārṅga bow, with a Garuḍa-banner—an audacious counterfeit of Viṣṇu’s form.
External marks can be copied, but true divinity is recognized by reality and righteousness, not by borrowed insignia.
No tirtha is directly praised; the verse focuses on the dramatic recognition of the impostor within the larger Prabhāsa-kṣetra māhātmya text.
None; the verse is descriptive, emphasizing iconographic details.
