mlecchādhipatayo ’bhūvann udīcīṁ diśam āśritāḥ turvasoś ca suto vahnir vahner bhargo ’tha bhānumān
普拉切塔的一百个儿子占据了缺乏吠陀文明的北方地区,并在那裡成为诸王。雅雅提的第二子为图尔瓦苏;其子为瓦赫尼;瓦赫尼之子为婆尔伽;婆尔伽之子为婆努曼。

In Canto 9, Śukadeva narrates the dynasties descending from King Yayāti’s sons; this verse continues that genealogical account by listing Turvasu’s descendants.
They remind readers that power, nations, and lineages change with time—encouraging detachment from temporary identity and a deeper focus on lasting dharma and devotion.
