Post–Baka-vadha Residence and the Introduction of Yājñasenī’s Svayaṃvara (आदि पर्व, अध्याय १५३)
विक्रमं मे यथेन्द्रस्य साद्य द्रक्ष्यसि शोभने । मावमंस्था: पृथुश्रोणि मत्वा मामिह मानुषम्,शोभने! मेरा पराक्रम (भी) इन्द्रके समान है, जिसे तुम अभी देखोगी। विशाल नितम्बोंवाली राक्षसी! तुम मुझे मनुष्य समझकर यहाँ मेरा तिरस्कार न करो
vikramaṃ me yathendrasya sādya drakṣyasi śobhane | māvamamsthāḥ pṛthuśroṇi matvā mām iha mānuṣam ||
ဘီမက ပြောသည်– «အလှတရားရှိသူရေ၊ ငါ့ရဲရင့်မှုသည် အိန္ဒြာကဲ့သို့ဖြစ်ကြောင်းကို ယခုချက်ချင်း သင်မြင်ရလိမ့်မည်။ တင်ပါးကျယ်သူရေ၊ ငါ့ကို လူသားသာဟု ထင်ပြီး ဒီမှာ မထီမဲ့မြင် မလုပ်ပါနှင့်»။

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the ethical demand for respect and the refusal to tolerate contempt based on appearances or assumptions. Bhima asserts that true worth is shown through action and courage, not by labels such as “mere human.”
Bhima addresses a woman (contextually a rākṣasī) who has underestimated him. He warns her not to despise him and declares that she will immediately witness his Indra-like prowess.
