षडशीतिसहस्राणि योजनानां महीतलात् । कृष्यमाणो यमपुरीं नीयते पापकृद्भटैः
ṣaḍaśītisahasrāṇi yojanānāṃ mahītalāt | kṛṣyamāṇo yamapurīṃ nīyate pāpakṛdbhaṭaiḥ
Bị lôi kéo khỏi mặt đất suốt tám mươi sáu nghìn do-tuần, kẻ tạo ác bị bọn lính canh dẫn đến thành của Diêm Vương (Yama).
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa framing)
Scene: Yama’s guards seize a sinner on earth and drag him downward across an immeasurable distance toward the dark city of Yama.
It stresses the inescapability and magnitude of karmic consequence for harmful actions.
Yamapurī is mentioned as Yama’s realm, not a pilgrimage tīrtha praised for merit.
None; the verse is a cautionary description of the sinner’s post-death route.
