Adhyaya 5 — Tvashta’s Wrath, the Birth of Vritra, and the Divine Descent as the Pandavas
उत्पन्नौ यमजौ माद्रयां शक्ररूपौ महाद्युतिः ।
पञ्चधा भगवानीत्थमवतीर्णः शतक्रतुः ॥
utpannau yamajau mādrayāṃ śakrarūpau mahādyutī | pañcadhā bhagavān ittham avatīrṇaḥ śatakratuḥ ||
မာဒရီမှ သကရာ (ဣန္ဒြ) ၏ ရုပ်သဏ္ဌာန်နှင့် ဆင်တူသော တောက်ပသည့် အမွှာနှစ်ဦး မွေးဖွားလာ하였다။ ထို့ကြောင့် ကောင်းမြတ်တော်မူသော သတကရတု (ဣန္ဒြ) သည် ငါးမျိုးသော ပေါ်ထွန်းမှုဖြင့် ဆင်းသက်လာခဲ့သည်။
The verse underscores a Purāṇic idea: cosmic offices (like Indra-hood) and divine functions can be expressed through multiple manifestations, emphasizing that divine agency works through lineage and time to uphold order (dharma) rather than remaining confined to a single, static embodiment.
Primarily Manvantara and Vaṃśa/vaṃśānucarita: it belongs to the genealogical-historical stream that situates events and births within the unfolding of dynasties across manvantara time-cycles.
‘Pañcadhā’ (fivefold) hints at the divisible, function-oriented nature of divine power: one sovereignty (Indra/Śakra) can distribute itself into multiple loci to accomplish distinct cosmic tasks, suggesting that splendor (dyuti) and authority are not merely personal traits but transmissible, role-based energies.
