स्थितिमुत्थापयामास धर्मोपेतां सनातनीम् । वेदशास्त्राण्यतिक्रम्य ह्यधर्म निरतोऽभवत्
sthitimutthāpayāmāsa dharmopetāṃ sanātanīm | vedaśāstrāṇyatikramya hyadharma nirato'bhavat
त्याने धर्मयुक्त सनातन व्यवस्था उलथून टाकली. वेद-शास्त्रांचे उल्लंघन करून तो अधर्मात रत झाला.
Purāṇic narrator (contextual; within Prabhāsakṣetra Māhātmya narration)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa
Type: kshetra
Scene: The king topples a symbolic pillar of Dharma (sanātanī sthiti), while Veda manuscripts and śāstra scrolls lie trampled; shadowy figures of adharma rise behind him.
When rulers abandon Vedic-śāstric guidance, social order collapses and adharma becomes dominant.
The broader frame is Prabhāsakṣetra Māhātmya (the greatness of Prabhāsa), though this verse focuses on a moral-historical episode.
None directly; it establishes the theme of rejecting Vedic ritual and dharma.
