Adhyaya 65 — Svarocis Enjoys on the Mountain; A Debate on Marital Fidelity and Desire
सौवर्णानि महाभाग ! करकान् भाजनानि च ।
तथा शय्याश्च विविधा दिव्यैरास्तरणैर्युताः ॥
sauvarṇāni mahābhāga! karakān bhājanāni ca / tathā śayyāś ca vividhā divyair āstaraṇair yutāḥ
हे भाग्यवान, त्यांनी सुवर्ण कलश व पात्रेही आणून दिली; तसेच दिव्य आच्छादनांनी युक्त विविध शय्याही अर्पण केल्या।
Comfort is presented as a legitimate fruit when it arrives through sanctioned means; the narrative implies that prosperity is not inherently opposed to dharma.
Manvantara narrative: these verses elaborate the ‘result’ (phala) of a bestowed vidyā within the epochal story-frame.
Vessels and beds can symbolize containment and rest: the capacity to ‘hold’ (bhājana) and to ‘repose’ (śayyā) indicates stabilized prosperity rather than restless craving.
