แล้วเขาถูกปล่อยและมาเกิดบนแผ่นดินเป็นหมูป่าบ้าน; เขาต้องเสวยนรกยาวนาน เพราะได้กินในวันศักดิ์สิทธิ์ของพระหริ (เอกาทศี)
Unspecified (narrative voice; surrounding dialogue context not provided)
Concept: Ekādaśī (Hari-vāsara) is inviolable; eating on that day generates severe karmic consequence and prolonged naraka-experience, followed by degrading rebirth.
Application: Observe Ekādaśī with restraint (at least avoid prohibited eating), cultivate reverence for sacred time, and treat vrata as a discipline of the senses rather than mere ritual.

FAQs
Harivāsara literally means “the day of Hari (Viṣṇu)” and commonly refers to Ekādaśī, a sacred fasting observance dedicated to Viṣṇu in many Purāṇic and Vaiṣṇava traditions.
The verse uses karmic consequence imagery: violating a sacred observance (eating on harivāsara) is presented as leading to prolonged suffering (naraka) and an unfavorable rebirth (as a grāma-sūkara).
It emphasizes restraint and reverence for vowed religious observances—especially Vaiṣṇava fasting days—teaching that deliberate disregard of such vows is treated as morally consequential.
