Draupadī Episode
सम्पूर्णकोशा: किल मे मातर: पितरस्तथा । भयात् सर्वेषु लोकेषु नाधिजग्मु: परायणम्
Ūrva uvāca | sampūrṇakośāḥ kila me mātaraḥ pitaras tathā | bhayāt sarveṣu lokeṣu nādhijagmuḥ parāyaṇam | tataḥ vasiṣṭhādayaḥ sarve munayas tatra menire | tejasā dīpyamānaṃ vai dvitīyam iva bhāskaram |
奥尔瓦说道：“就连我的母亲们——腹中已怀满胎者——以及我的父亲们，也因恐惧而在诸世界间流离奔走，却处处不得庇护。随后，在场诸圣者自婆悉吒起，皆见那位光辉的仙人以灵威炽然，如同第二轮太阳。”

Educational Q&A
Fear can drive even the most protected or privileged into restless flight, yet true refuge is not found by mere movement across realms; it is associated with dharmic protection and the stabilizing presence of realized sages whose tejas inspires confidence and order.
Aurva describes a crisis in which his kin—mothers and fathers—flee in fear through various worlds without finding shelter. In that setting, the assembled sages led by Vasiṣṭha perceive a great seer blazing with spiritual radiance, compared to a second sun.
