सगरस्य पुत्रलाभः
Sagara’s Boons, Progeny, and the Rise of the Sixty Thousand
अथ दीर्घेण कालेन रूपयौवनशालिन:।षष्टि: पुत्रसहस्राणि सगरस्याभवंस्तदा।।।।
atha dīrgheṇa kālena rūpayauvanaśālinaḥ | ṣaṣṭiḥ putrasahasrāṇi sagarasyābhavaṃs tadā ||
Rồi sau một thời gian dài, sáu vạn người con của Sagara đều rạng rỡ dung nhan, tràn đầy sức sống của tuổi trẻ.
Then, after a long time Sagara's sixty thousand sons attained beauty and youth.
Power and youth are presented as a stage that must be guided by dharma; the epic often foreshadows that strength without righteousness can become destructive.
A time-jump marks the sons’ maturation, preparing for later conflicts and actions involving them.
Not a virtue directly, but a narrative emphasis on preparedness—and the implied need for disciplined conduct as strength increases.
