तददवेक्ष्य कृतं कर्म राक्षसेन बलीयसा । दिवि देवा: सगन्धर्वा मुनयश्लापि विस्मिता:,महाबली राक्षसके द्वारा किये गये इस महान् कर्मको देखकर आकाशमें खड़े हुए देवता, गन्धर्व और मुनि बड़े विस्मित हुए
tad adavekṣya kṛtaṃ karma rākṣasena balīyasā | divi devāḥ sagandharvā munayaś cāpi vismitāḥ ||
Sañjaya nói: Thấy đại công ấy do rākṣasa hùng mạnh thực hiện, các chư thiên trên không trung—cùng các Gandharva và các bậc hiền triết—đều sững sờ kinh ngạc.

Educational Q&A
Extraordinary capability and force can draw acknowledgment even from divine and sage witnesses, but the verse implicitly invites ethical reflection: greatness of power is not the same as greatness of righteousness, and the moral weight depends on the purpose and consequences of the deed.
Sañjaya reports that a powerful Rākṣasa has performed a remarkable act; observing it from the sky, the gods, Gandharvas, and sages react with amazement at the scale or effectiveness of what has been done.
