The Sin of Breaking Households: Citrā’s Past Karma and the Remedy of Hari’s Name and Meditation
केयूरकंकणैर्हारैर्मौक्तिकैरृक्षसन्निभैः । वपुषा भ्राजमानस्तु विजयो जयतां वरः
keyūrakaṃkaṇairhārairmauktikairṛkṣasannibhaiḥ | vapuṣā bhrājamānastu vijayo jayatāṃ varaḥ
ทรงประดับด้วยพาหุรัด กำไล สร้อย และมุกดาดั่งดวงดาวที่ส่องประกาย; ‘ชัย’ ผู้มีรูปกายรุ่งเรือง ย่อมเป็นยอดแห่งผู้มีชัยทั้งปวง
Unspecified narrator (context-dependent within the Bhūmi-khaṇḍa dialogue frame)
Concept: Divine victory (jaya) is not mere conquest but the radiance of dharma and the Lord’s auspicious presence, inspiring the devotee’s inner steadiness.
Application: When facing conflict, remember ‘jaya’ as alignment with dharma—begin tasks with a brief remembrance of the Lord’s victorious presence rather than anxiety.

Sandhi Resolution Notes: केयूरकंकणैः = केयूर + कङ्कणैः (द्वन्द्व); हारैर्मौक्तिकैरृक्षसन्निभैः = हारैः + मौक्तिकैः + ऋक्षसन्निभैः (रेफ-सन्धि: मौक्तिकैः ऋक्ष...); भ्राजमानस्तु = भ्राजमानः + तु।
Here “Vijaya” functions as a personification of victory (a poetic, deity-like embodiment), praised as the foremost among conquerors.
The ornament imagery is an alaṅkāra (poetic embellishment) used to convey splendor, auspiciousness, and the irresistible radiance associated with victory.
By portraying victory as radiant and exalted, the verse implicitly elevates the ideal of triumph—often understood in Purāṇic contexts as victory aligned with dharma rather than mere conquest.
