मम वाक्यादपि प्राप्य एते लक्ष्मीं द्विजोत्तमाः । निर्धनाः संभविष्यंति नीत्वा यद्द्वारतो ऽखिलम्
mama vākyādapi prāpya ete lakṣmīṃ dvijottamāḥ | nirdhanāḥ saṃbhaviṣyaṃti nītvā yaddvārato 'khilam
నా వాక్యంతోనే సంపద పొందినా, ఈ శ్రేష్ఠ బ్రాహ్మణులు ద్వారానికి వచ్చినదంతా తీసుకెళ్లి చివరికి దరిద్రులవుతారు.
Indra (Pākaśāsana) (deduced from context)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Indra pronounces the curse; behind the brāhmaṇas, symbols of wealth (grain, vessels, cloth) appear as if being carried away, while their future is shown as empty hands and a barren threshold.
Prosperity without gratitude and restraint collapses; dharma sustains Lakṣmī, while moral breach causes decline.
No holy site is named in this verse; it continues the ethical narrative within the tīrtha section.
None; the verse states the result of a curse affecting wealth.
