Subhadrā disse: «Por causa das armas, aquele touro entre os sábios foi morto por gente iludida. Ó virtuoso, embora as ocultasse, eles buscaram outras formas dessas mesmas armas».
Subhadrā
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: (her son / the questioning ascetic figure)
Scene: Subhadrā, composed yet sorrowful, narrates the killing of a great sage by deluded weapon-bearers; faint silhouettes of weapons or their ‘other forms’ hover symbolically, suggesting obsession that persists despite concealment.
Attachment to power (weapons) breeds delusion and violence; even sages can be targeted when worldly aims dominate.
The passage is situated within Prabhāsakṣetra Māhātmya, connecting the moral narrative to the sanctified geography of Prabhāsa.
