गोघ्नस्तु निक्षेपहरो ग्रामसीमाहरस्तु यः । सर्वे ते नरकं यांति या च स्त्री पतिवंचका
goghnastu nikṣepaharo grāmasīmāharastu yaḥ | sarve te narakaṃ yāṃti yā ca strī pativaṃcakā
گائے کا قاتل، امانت (نکشےپ) ہڑپ کرنے والا، اور گاؤں کی سرحدی زمین چرانے والا—یہ سب نرک کو جاتے ہیں؛ اور وہ عورت بھی جو اپنے شوہر کو دھوکا دے۔
Deductive: Purāṇic narrator within the Vastrāpathakṣetra Māhātmya (Prabhāsa Khaṇḍa)
Scene: A village-edge scene: a cow protected by righteous villagers; a boundary-stone (sīmā) stands firm; a deposit chest symbolizes trust; a household scene contrasts fidelity with deception; a dark naraka-cloud looms as warning.
It stresses trust, social order (land boundaries), and fidelity as dharmic pillars; their violation is linked to naraka.
The teaching occurs in the Vastrāpathakṣetra Māhātmya of Prabhāsa Kṣetra, using dharma to frame the sanctity of place.
None is specified; the verse functions as condemnation of specific transgressions.
