Adhyaya 75 — The Fall and Restoration of Revatī Nakṣatra and the Birth of Raivata Manu
ऋषिरुवाच भविष्यत्येष ते कामो मनुस्त्वत्तनयो महीम् ।
सकलां भोक्ष्यते भूप धर्मविच्च भविष्यति ॥
ṛṣiruvāca bhaviṣyaty eṣa te kāmo manus tvat-tanayo mahīm | sakalāṃ bhokṣyate bhūpa dharmavic ca bhaviṣyati ||
ရှင်တော်က မိန့်တော်မူသည်—“သင်၏ ဆန္ဒသည် အမှန်တကယ် ဖြစ်လာမည်။ သင်၏ သားသည် မနု ဖြစ်လိမ့်မည်။ အို မင်းကြီး၊ သူသည် မြေကြီးတစ်လောကလုံးကို အုပ်စိုးမည်၊ ထို့ပြင် ဓမ္မကို သိမြင်သူ ဖြစ်လိမ့်မည်” ဟု။
Legitimate power is inseparable from dharma-knowledge; the highest political authority (a Manu) is validated by moral discernment, not force alone.
Manvantara and Vaṃśānucarita: it announces the rise of a Manu within a lineage and defines his qualities as dharmic governance.
The ‘entire earth’ can also be read as the total field of embodied experience; dharma-knowledge ‘rules’ life when ethical insight governs all faculties.
