Adhyaya 19 — Kartavirya Arjuna at Dattatreya’s Ashram: Boons, Sovereignty, and Vaishnava Praise
आघोषयामास तदा स्थितो राज्ये स हैहयः ।
दत्तात्रेयात् परामृद्धिमवाप्यातिबलान्वितः ॥
āghoṣayāmāsa tadā sthito rājye sa haihayaḥ / dattātreyāt parāmṛddhimavāpyātibalānvitaḥ
پھر اپنی سلطنت میں مستحکم ہو کر اس ہیہیا بادشاہ نے اعلان کیا؛ دتاتریہ سے عظیم خوشحالی پا کر وہ غیر معمولی طاقت سے مالا مال ہو گیا تھا۔

Power and prosperity are portrayed as safest when grounded in dharma and divine sanction; once established, the king’s first act is to set public norms by proclamation—rule requires clear law, not ambiguity.
Vaṃśānucarita: the narrative highlights a paradigmatic king’s rise and the source of his exceptional capacity.
‘Proclamation’ signifies the outward expression of inner attainment: a boon (ṛddhi/bala) becomes meaningful only when translated into a public order that restrains chaos.
