क्रोधाभिभूते विप्रे तु तडित्कोटिसभप्रभम् । सूर्येन्दुवह्निसंयोगाद्गुणत्रयसमन्वितम्
krodhābhibhūte vipre tu taḍitkoṭisabhaprabham | sūryenduvahnisaṃyogādguṇatrayasamanvitam
Nhưng đối với một Bà-la-môn bị cơn giận chi phối, nó rực sáng như mười triệu tia chớp. Từ sự kết hợp của mặt trời, mặt trăng và lửa, nó được phú cho ba phẩm chất (gunas).
Skanda (deduced from continuing exposition on yajñopavīta’s potency)
Listener: vipra/viprendra (addressed)
Scene: A consecrated brāhmaṇa, eyes blazing in anger, radiates a storm of lightning-like brilliance; behind him a cosmic mandala shows the sun, moon, and sacrificial fire interlinked, symbolizing guṇa-traya.
Sacred power is real and intense; when joined with anger it becomes dangerously blazing—hence self-control is essential to dharma.
No specific tīrtha is named in this verse; it continues the chapter’s spiritual-ritual exposition.
No direct new ritual act is prescribed here; it provides a doctrinal description (symbolic/energetic) connected to the sacred thread and inner discipline.
