निश्वासं परमं मुक्त्वा निपपात धरातले । मूलच्छिन्नो यथा वृक्षो निरुच्छ्वासस्तदाभवत्
niśvāsaṃ paramaṃ muktvā nipapāta dharātale | mūlacchinno yathā vṛkṣo nirucchvāsastadābhavat
अतिशय दीर्घ निश्वास सोडून तो भूमीवर कोसळला। जसा मुळापासून छाटलेला वृक्ष, तसा तो निःश्वास व जड झाला.

Scene: Andhaka exhales a long sigh and collapses onto the earth, limbs slack; the simile of an uprooted tree is visually echoed by a nearby severed stump or fallen trunk; the divine figures look on.
When desire is severed from dharma, the mind collapses—showing the danger of basing identity on a single ambition.
