Adhyaya 58 — The Kurma-Form of Narayana: Mapping Bharata through Nakshatras, Regions, and Planetary Afflictions
परस्पराभिरक्षा च ग्रहादौस्थ्येन जायते ।
एतेभ्य एव विप्रेन्द्र ! शुभहानिस्तथाशुभैः ॥
parasparābhirakṣā ca grahādausthyena jāyate / etebhya eva viprendra śubhahānis tathāśubhaiḥ //

Social cohesion and mutual safeguarding are emphasized as practical responses during periods of perceived cosmic/astrological adversity; one should protect community welfare when ‘graha’ conditions are adverse.
Ancillary dharma/ācāra material (not directly one of the five: sarga, pratisarga, vaṃśa, manvantara, vaṃśānucarita), but commonly embedded in Purāṇas as upadeśa (instruction) supporting dharma.
‘Graha’ can be read as inner compulsions that ‘seize’ the mind; when these are disordered, auspicious qualities decline—hence the need for conscious restraint and protective ethics.
