यश्च सर्वमिदं हन्याद्ब्राह्मणं चापि तत्समम् । सोऽग्निः सोऽर्को महातेजा विषं भवति कोपितः
yaśca sarvamidaṃ hanyādbrāhmaṇaṃ cāpi tatsamam | so'gniḥ so'rko mahātejā viṣaṃ bhavati kopitaḥ
ଯେ କେହି ଏହି ସମସ୍ତକୁ ଧ୍ୱଂସ କରେ ଏବଂ ବ୍ରାହ୍ମଣଙ୍କୁ ମଧ୍ୟ ହନନ କରେ—ଯାହା ସେହି ଧ୍ୱଂସ ସମାନ—ସେ ମହାତେଜ ଅଗ୍ନି ଓ ସୂର୍ଯ୍ୟ ପରି, କ୍ରୋଧିତ ହେଲେ ବିଷ ହୋଇଯାଏ।
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) to the assembled sages (deduced)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: null
Scene: A symbolic tableau: the sun and sacrificial fire blaze above; an offender’s act against a brahmana causes the same radiance to darken into a poisonous, smoky aura—tejas transmuting into viṣa.
Harming a Brāhmaṇa is portrayed as a catastrophic dharmic offense with toxic karmic fallout.
Prabhāsa-kṣetra; the māhātmya frames correct conduct as integral to benefiting from the tirtha.
No rite is prescribed; it is a prohibition and warning against violence and sacrilege.
