Educational Q&A
The verse highlights dharmic kingship and rightful honor: symbols like the white royal parasol and the sages’ clockwise circumambulation signify legitimate sovereignty and moral esteem, implying that true authority is affirmed by virtue and the recognition of the wise.
A royal parasol supported by tusk-rods is held aloft over the king, shining brightly, while great seers approach, praise him with hymns, and perform pradakṣiṇā (clockwise circumambulation) as a formal act of reverence.
