Adhyaya 2 — The Lineage of Garuda and the Birth of the Wise Birds: Kanka and Kandhara
सम्यगुक्तं द्विजाग्र्येण शुक्रेणोशनसा स्वयम् ।
पलायनपरं दृष्ट्वा दैत्यसैन्यं सुरार्दितम् ॥
samyaguktaṃ dvijāgryena śukreṇośanasā svayam / palāyanaparaṃ dṛṣṭvā daityasainyaṃ surārditam
ထို့ကြောင့် နှစ်ကြိမ်မွေးဖွားသူတို့အနက် အမြတ်ဆုံးဖြစ်သော ရှုကရ၊ ဥရှနတ်ကိုယ်တိုင် ပြောခဲ့သောစကားသည် အမှန်တကယ် သင့်လျော်၏။ အကြောင်းမူကား သူသည် နတ်တို့၏ ဖိနှိပ်တိုက်ခိုက်မှုကြောင့် ထွက်ပြေးလိုစိတ်ဖြင့် ပြည့်နေသော ဒိုင်တျယ စစ်တပ်ကို မြင်တွေ့ခဲ့သောကြောင့် ဖြစ်၏။

Sound counsel is validated by outcomes: whens the enemy’s force is broken and turns to flight, the prudent assessment of a wise adviser (here Shukra/Ushanas) is shown to be correct. Ethically, the verse implies that discernment (viveka) in conflict—recognizing when a force is demoralized or overmatched—prevents needless destruction and aligns action with realistic appraisal.
This verse belongs most closely to Vaṃśānucarita / narrative of dynasties and events (historical-epic narration of conflicts involving Devas and Daityas), rather than Sarga/Pratisarga. It is not explicitly a Manvantara marker here, but part of event-narration embedded in the Purana’s broader genealogical-historical material.
On a symbolic level, 'Daitya-sainyam palāyanaparam' can signify the retreat of tamasic and egoic tendencies when illumined and pressed by the 'Suras'—the luminous faculties (clarity, restraint, dharma). Shukra, though an Asura-preceptor, represents refined intelligence and strategy; the verse hints that even brilliance aligned with adharmic ends ultimately recognizes the turning of inner battle when the higher forces prevail.
