सूत उवाच । तयोस्तं निश्चयं ज्ञात्वा बकः परमदुर्मना । सुचिरं चिंतयामास कथं स्यादेतयोः सुखम्
sūta uvāca | tayostaṃ niścayaṃ jñātvā bakaḥ paramadurmanā | suciraṃ ciṃtayāmāsa kathaṃ syādetayoḥ sukham
సూతుడు పలికెను—ఆ ఇద్దరి నిశ్చయాన్ని తెలిసి బక పక్షి అత్యంత విచారగ్రస్తుడయ్యాడు. చాలా సేపు ఆలోచించాడు—ఈ ఇద్దరికీ క్షేమం ఎలా కలుగుతుంది?
Sūta
Type: kshetra
Listener: Śaunaka and other ṛṣis (implied traditional Sūta frame)
Scene: Sūta narrates as the bird Baka, distressed, sits apart in contemplation, watching two determined figures; time seems to slow as he searches for a saving solution.
When dharma faces a crisis, thoughtful deliberation and compassionate counsel become the first step toward saving life and restoring righteousness.
No single tīrtha is named in this verse; it functions as narrative linkage within the broader tīrtha-glorification chapter.
None; the verse describes emotional and moral deliberation.
