इंद्रद्युम्न उवाच । कस्माच्च्यावयसे ब्रह्मन्निजलोकाद्द्रुतं हि माम् । अपापमपि देवेश तथा मे वद कारणम्
iṃdradyumna uvāca | kasmāccyāvayase brahmannijalokāddrutaṃ hi mām | apāpamapi deveśa tathā me vada kāraṇam
Indradyumna thưa: “Bạch Phạm Thiên, vì sao Ngài vội vàng đẩy con rời khỏi cõi của Ngài? Bạch Đấng Chúa tể chư thiên, dẫu con vô tội, xin hãy nói rõ nguyên do.”
Indradyumna
Type: kshetra
Listener: Brahmā
Scene: Indradyumna, surprised and pained, questions Brahmā with folded hands, asking why he is being sent down despite being sinless; Brahmā listens with composed authority.
Even the ‘sinless’ must understand the subtle causes of karmic change; heavenly status depends on sustaining dharmic merit.
This verse initiates the Tīrthamāhātmya narrative arc; the specific site is developed in the surrounding passage rather than named here.
None in this verse; it is a theological inquiry setting up later dharma/merit instructions.
