Śoka-śamana: Kṛṣṇa’s Consolation and Nārada’s Exempla to Sṛñjaya
Chapter 29
यदद्गः प्रददौ वित्तं सोमसंस्थासु सप्तसु । “अंगराजने सातों सोम-संस्थाओंमें* जो धन दिया था, उतना जो दे सके, ऐसा दूसरा न तो कोई मनुष्य पैदा हुआ है और न पैदा होगा
yad aṅgaḥ pradadau vittaṃ somasaṃsthāsu saptasu |
Wika ni Vāyu: “Ang yaman na ipinagkaloob ng Haring Aṅga sa pitong pagtitipon ng handog na Soma—wala pang taong isinilang, at wala ring isisilang, na makapagbibigay nang kapantay niyon.”
वायुदेव उवाच
The verse elevates dāna (generosity) performed in a dharmic context—especially connected with yajña—as an unsurpassed royal virtue, presenting extraordinary giving as a benchmark of righteous conduct.
Vāyudeva is praising Aṅga’s famed gifts given during seven Soma-sacrificial sessions, declaring that no other person has matched—or will match—the magnitude of that generosity.
