Educational Q&A
The verse presents a traditional, ‘wise’ classification of animals into domestic (grāmya) and wild/forest-dwelling (āraṇya), emphasizing orderly categorization as part of learned discourse addressed to a king.
Sañjaya continues a descriptive explanation to the king, stating that sages count seven animals as domestic and, when combined with wild ones, speak of a total of fourteen—framing the information as authoritative traditional knowledge.
