Time-Reckoning, Yuga-Dharma, and the Sequence of Creation

त्वमप्येवमवेक्षस्व मा55त्मना विस्मयं गम: । प्रभवश्च प्रभावश्च नात्मसंस्थ: कदाचन,तुम भी जगत्‌को इसी दृष्टिसे देखो। अपने मनमें विस्मित न होओ। प्रभुता और प्रभाव अपने अधीन नहीं हैं

tvam apy evam avekṣasva mā ātmanā vismayaṁ gamaḥ | prabhavaś ca prabhāvaś ca nātmasaṁsthaḥ kadācana ||

నీవు కూడా లోకాన్ని ఇదే దృష్టితో చూడు; నీలో ఆశ్చర్యం గానీ అహంకారం గానీ పుట్టనీయకు. ప్రభుత్వమూ ప్రభావమూ ఎప్పటికీ స్వయంలో స్థిరంగా ఉండవు—అవి సదా మన వశంలో ఉండవు.

Educational Q&A

Power and influence are not truly ‘one’s own’; they are contingent and unstable. Therefore one should view the world with clear discernment and avoid self-congratulatory wonder or pride.

Indra (Śakra) instructs the listener to adopt a sober perspective on worldly status, warning that sovereignty and personal impact do not remain permanently under an individual’s control.
