ततः कालेन महता कृताख्ययुगपर्यये । लोहासुरो मदोन्मत्तो ब्रह्मवेषधरः सदा
tataḥ kālena mahatā kṛtākhyayugaparyaye | lohāsuro madonmatto brahmaveṣadharaḥ sadā
Rồi theo thời gian rất lâu, vào lúc kết thúc thời đại mang tên Kṛta, Lohāsura say cuồng vì kiêu mạn, luôn khoác hình tướng một vị Bà-la-môn.
Purāṇic narrator (contextual)
Tirtha: Dharmāraṇyaka (implied)
Type: kshetra
Scene: At yuga’s turning, Lohāsura appears—powerful, arrogant—wearing a brāhmaṇa’s guise: staff, sacred thread, and calm exterior masking a fierce asuric aura.
Adharma often enters by disguise; discernment is required especially as ages change and virtue declines.
The narrative remains set in the Dharmāraṇya cycle; this verse introduces a new threat rather than praising a site.
None; it introduces Lohāsura and his deceptive behavior.
