क्रोधाभिभूते विप्रे तु तडित्कोटिसभप्रभम् । सूर्येन्दुवह्निसंयोगाद्गुणत्रयसमन्वितम्
krodhābhibhūte vipre tu taḍitkoṭisabhaprabham | sūryenduvahnisaṃyogādguṇatrayasamanvitam
கோபத்தால் ஆட்கொள்ளப்பட்ட பிராமணனிடத்தில் அது கோடி மின்னல்களின் ஒளிபோல் பிரகாசிக்கிறது. சூரியன்–சந்திரன்–அக்னியின் சங்கமத்தால் அது முக்குணங்களால் நிறைந்ததாகும்.
Skanda (deduced from continuing exposition on yajñopavīta’s potency)
Listener: vipra/viprendra (addressed)
Scene: A consecrated brāhmaṇa, eyes blazing in anger, radiates a storm of lightning-like brilliance; behind him a cosmic mandala shows the sun, moon, and sacrificial fire interlinked, symbolizing guṇa-traya.
Sacred power is real and intense; when joined with anger it becomes dangerously blazing—hence self-control is essential to dharma.
No specific tīrtha is named in this verse; it continues the chapter’s spiritual-ritual exposition.
No direct new ritual act is prescribed here; it provides a doctrinal description (symbolic/energetic) connected to the sacred thread and inner discipline.
