Diti’s Puṁsavana Vow, Indra’s Intervention, and the Birth of the Maruts
दितिरुत्थाय ददृशे कुमाराननलप्रभान् । इन्द्रेण सहितान् देवी पर्यतुष्यदनिन्दिता ॥ ६८ ॥
ditir utthāya dadṛśe kumārān anala-prabhān indreṇa sahitān devī paryatuṣyad aninditā
ເນື່ອງຈາກການບູຊາພຣະເຈົ້າສູງສຸດ ດິຕິ ຈຶ່ງບໍລິສຸດຢ່າງສົມບູນ. ເມື່ອນາງລຸກຈາກທີ່ນອນ ນາງເຫັນລູກຊາຍ 49 ຄົນຢູ່ກັບ ອິນທຣະ. ພວກເຂົາສະຫວ່າງໄສດຸດໄຟ ແລະເປັນມິດກັບອິນທຣະ; ດັ່ງນັ້ນ ເທວີຜູ້ບໍ່ມີຕຳນິ ຈຶ່ງຍິນດີຢ່າງຫຼາຍ.
This verse says Diti, once hostile to Indra, became fully satisfied upon seeing her radiant sons (the Maruts) in Indra’s company—showing a turn toward reconciliation by divine arrangement.
In this episode, the Maruts—born from Diti—are accepted among the devas and connected with Indra, indicating that what began as conflict is transformed into harmony within the cosmic order.
Even intense grievances can soften when we recognize a higher purpose and focus on constructive outcomes—moving from resentment toward peace and acceptance.
