Adhyaya 62 — The Fire-God Enters the Brahmin Youth; Varuthini’s Love-Sickness and Kali’s Disguise
मार्कण्डेय उवाच इथ्थं सा मदनाविष्टा जगाम मुनिसत्तम ।
ववृधे च तदा रागस्तस्यास्तस्मिन् प्रतिक्षणम् ॥
mārkaṇḍeya uvāca itthaṃ sā madanāviṣṭā jagāma muni-sattama |
vavṛdhe ca tadā rāgas tasyās tasmin pratikṣaṇam ||
มารกัณฑेयกล่าวว่า—ดูก่อนผู้ประเสริฐในหมู่นักบวช นางคร่ำครวญอยู่อย่างนั้นด้วยถูกความรักครอบงำ; แล้วความหลงใหลต่อเขาก็เพิ่มพูนขึ้นทุกขณะ।

Desire is shown as a dynamic process—if not checked early, it compounds moment by moment. This is consistent with dharma-text psychology: saṅkalpa → saṅga → rāga → duḥkha.
This is narrative connective tissue; not a direct pancalakṣaṇa element, but part of the Purāṇic storytelling (vaṃśānucarita/ākhyāna) that often accompanies genealogical or didactic sections.
‘Pratikṣaṇam’ underscores the moment-to-moment reinforcement of vāsanās; it hints at a yogic insight: liberation or bondage is also momentary, built by repeated mental acts.
