एवमाद्यैर्नरः पापैरुत्क्रान्तैः समनंतरम् । शरीरं यातनार्थाय पूर्वाकारमवाप्नुयात्
evamādyairnaraḥ pāpairutkrāntaiḥ samanaṃtaram | śarīraṃ yātanārthāya pūrvākāramavāpnuyāt
अशा पापांसह देहत्याग केल्यावर मनुष्य तत्क्षणीच यातना भोगण्यासाठी पूर्वीप्रमाणेच तसाच देह पुन्हा प्राप्त करतो।
Mahākāla (contextual—Kaumārikākhaṇḍa dialogue; immediate speaker not marked in this verse)
Scene: A liminal scene: the departing soul (preta-like) is seized by yamadūtas; then a shadowy ‘re-formed’ body appears, suggesting re-embodiment for suffering.
Actions follow the soul; sinful tendencies can lead to immediate consequences in embodied states of suffering.
No tīrtha appears; the verse explains karmic aftermath rather than sacred geography.
None explicitly; it prepares the ground for turning toward Śiva as refuge in the next verse.
