Educational Q&A
When dharma declines and collective karma ripens, disorder appears not only in society but symbolically in nature; such portents warn that destructive consequences are imminent.
Vaiśampāyana describes terrifying omens in Dvārakā and among the Yādavas: births occur in reversed, unnatural ways, indicating that calamity and the end of the Yādava line are near.
