सूत उवाच । एतस्मिन्नेव काले तु विश्वामित्रो महामुनिः । तां शक्तिं व्यर्थतां प्राप्तां ज्ञात्वा कोपसमन्वितः
sūta uvāca | etasminneva kāle tu viśvāmitro mahāmuniḥ | tāṃ śaktiṃ vyarthatāṃ prāptāṃ jñātvā kopasamanvitaḥ
ಸೂತನು ಹೇಳಿದನು—ಅದೇ ಸಮಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಮಹಾಮುನಿ ವಿಶ್ವಾಮಿತ್ರನು ತನ್ನ ಶಕ್ತಿ ವ್ಯರ್ಥವಾದುದನ್ನು ತಿಳಿದು ಕೋಪದಿಂದ ಆವರಿತನಾದನು.
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa)
Tirtha: Dhārā-tīrtha / Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra (narrative setting)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Śaunaka and the Naimiṣāraṇya sages (implied)
Scene: Viśvāmitra stands austere yet furious, matted hair and staff, eyes blazing; the atmosphere tightens as he realizes his śakti has become ineffective; disciples recoil; the kṣetra’s sacred landscape looms.
When spiritual power is thwarted, unchecked anger can arise—setting the stage for further dharmic instruction through ensuing events.
The broader Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra tīrthamāhātmya frame continues, though this verse begins a new narrative episode.
None; it introduces the next storyline featuring Viśvāmitra.
