The Rise of Soma-vaṁśa: Budha’s Birth and Purūravā–Urvaśī; The Origin of Karma-kāṇḍa in Tretā-yuga
तत: पुरूरवा जज्ञे इलायां य उदाहृत: । तस्य रूपगुणौदार्यशीलद्रविणविक्रमान् ॥ १५ ॥ श्रुत्वोर्वशीन्द्रभवने गीयमानान् सुरर्षिणा । तदन्तिकमुपेयाय देवी स्मरशरार्दिता ॥ १६ ॥
tataḥ purūravā jajñe ilāyāṁ ya udāhṛtaḥ tasya rūpa-guṇaudārya- śīla-draviṇa-vikramān
随后,布陀(Budha)由伊拉(Ilā)之胎生下名为普鲁罗婆(Purūravā)的儿子,他在第九篇开头已被提及。天界因陀罗的宫廷中,圣者那罗陀歌咏他之容貌、德行、宽宏、品性、财富与威势;天女乌尔瓦希(Urvaśī)闻之,被爱神迦摩之箭所伤,心生爱慕,遂前往亲近他。
It begins with Purūravas’ renowned qualities being sung in Indra’s assembly; hearing this, Urvaśī becomes love-struck by Cupid and approaches him.
Because she hears his glories—beauty, virtues, wealth, and valor—being praised by a celestial sage, and she is overwhelmed by desire (smara-śara).
Fame and attractive qualities can intensify desire and attachment; the verse invites vigilance over the mind and senses, redirecting attraction toward higher, devotional aims.
