इन्द्रस्य पाण्डवैः समागमः
Indra’s Meeting with the Pāṇḍavas
सहिता: प्रत्यपद्यन्त कुबेरसदन प्रति । उधर भीमसेनकी मारसे बचे हुए राक्षस एक साथ हो कुबेरके भवनमें गये
sahitāḥ pratyapadyanta kuberasadana prati |
Sinabi ni Vaiśampāyana: Ang mga rākṣasa na nakaligtas sa paglusob ni Bhīmasena ay nagtipon-tipon at umurong patungo sa tahanan ni Kubera. Ipinahihiwatig ng talatang ito na ang marahas na kasamaan ay gumuho sa harap ng lakas na matuwid, at ang nalalabing bahagi ng natalong puwersa ay naghahanap ng kanlungan at pag-iingat sa ilalim ng mas mataas na kapangyarihan.
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
When adharma-driven aggression meets steadfast strength aligned with dharma, it breaks; the defeated then seek shelter under a higher authority, showing the moral arc from violence to accountability and refuge.
After being struck down by Bhīmasena, the surviving rākṣasas regroup and retreat together toward Kubera’s residence, indicating their flight from immediate danger and their attempt to find protection.
