Enumeration and Description of Classes of Sins and Their Consequences
अग्निक्षारनदीभ्यां तु प्राप्नुवन्ति न संशयः ॥ परदारप्रसक्तानां भयं भवति निग्रहः
agnikṣāranadībhyāṃ tu prāpnuvanti na saṃśayaḥ || paradāraprasaktānāṃ bhayaṃ bhavati nigrahaḥ
వారు అగ్ని మరియు క్షార నదులను పొందుతారు—ఇందులో సందేహం లేదు. పరస్త్రీలో ఆసక్తులైనవారికి భయం కలుగుతుంది, తరువాత నియంత్రణ/దండన జరుగుతుంది।
Varāha (default speaker per dialogue framework)
It links social transgression (paradāra) with punitive imagery, illustrating how Purāṇic texts integrate societal norms into karmic narrative frameworks.

It discourages violating marital boundaries and frames such acts as leading to fear, punishment, and suffering.
