Adhyaya 22 — Kuvalayashva’s Death through Daitya-Deceit and Madalasa’s Self-Immolation
एतन्मया नृशंसनेन दृष्टं दुष्कृतकारिणा ।
यदत्रानन्तरं कृत्यं क्रियतां तदकाळिकम् ॥
etanmayā nṛśaṃsena dṛṣṭaṃ duṣkṛtakāriṇā | yadatrānantaraṃ kṛtyaṃ kriyatāṃ tadakālikam ||
ဤအရာကို ငါကိုယ်တိုင် မြင်ခဲ့သည်—ငါသည် ကြမ်းတမ်း၍ အပြစ်လုပ်သူဖြစ်သော်လည်း။ ဤကိစ္စ၌ နောက်တစ်ဆင့် လုပ်သင့်သမျှကို ချက်ချင်း၊ နှောင့်နှေးမရှိဘဲ ဆောင်ရွက်ပါစေ။

When adharma is witnessed, the right response is prompt duty (kṛtya) rather than delay. The speaker’s self-deprecating phrasing can function as moral seriousness: acknowledging one’s flaws while still insisting on immediate righteous action.
Ākhyāna. It is a narrative pivot that triggers the next action in the story.
‘Akālikam’ points to kairos—right timing: spiritual and ethical restoration often depends less on elaborate planning than on immediate alignment with dharma once clarity arises.
