केचित्सभां प्रकुर्वन्ति केचिद्द्रव्यार्जने रताः । परोक्षवादं कुर्वन्ति केऽपि हिंसारताः सदा
kecitsabhāṃ prakurvanti keciddravyārjane ratāḥ | parokṣavādaṃ kurvanti ke'pi hiṃsāratāḥ sadā
کچھ لوگ مجلسوں اور جھگڑوں میں مگن ہو جاتے ہیں، کچھ مال کمانے میں دل لگاتے ہیں۔ کچھ پسِ پشت بدگوئی کرتے ہیں، اور کچھ ہمیشہ تشدد و ہنسا میں رچے بسے رہتے ہیں۔
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) (deduced for Āvantya Khaṇḍa narration style)
Tirtha: Revā-tīrtha (general)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Four vignettes around a sacred riverbank: (1) men arguing in an assembly, (2) a figure counting coins, (3) whispering slanderers, (4) a violent attacker—contrasted with a quiet pilgrim facing the river in prayer.
Social agitation, greed, slander, and violence are moral obstacles that divert a person from tīrtha-oriented, dharmic living.
Indirectly, the Revā Khaṇḍa tīrtha is being praised by showing how people get diverted from reaching or staying in its holy sphere.
None explicitly; the verse functions as ethical diagnosis rather than ritual instruction.
