Adhyaya 63 — The Birth of Svarocis and the Rescue of Manoramā: The Astra-Heart and the Healing of Curses
पुरुषैरपि नो शक्या कर्तुमित्थं नृशंसता ।
स्वभावरुचिरैर्मादृक् कथं योषित् करिष्यति ॥
puruṣair api no śakyā kartum itthaṃ nṛśaṃsatā | svabhāva-rucirair mā-dṛk kathaṃ yoṣit kariṣyati ||
ഇത്തരം ക്രൂരത പുരുഷന്മാർക്കുപോലും എളുപ്പമല്ല. പിന്നെ സ്വഭാവത്തിൽ മൃദുവായ എന്നെപ്പോലുള്ള സ്ത്രീ അത് എങ്ങനെ ചെയ്യും?

Cruelty is portrayed as a moral aberration, not a norm; the verse argues from svabhāva (disposition) that one should not be compelled into actions that violate innate ethical sensibility and compassion.
Ethical discourse embedded in narrative; not pancalakṣaṇa.
The refusal of nṛśaṃsatā indicates the primacy of sattvic nature; esoterically, it suggests that spiritual progress depends on honoring the inner compass toward non-harm.
