Tapovana-praveśaḥ — The King’s Entry into the Sacred Grove and Vision of the Āśrama
आश्रमस्थान् महर्षीश्न धर्षयन्तस्ततस्तत: । अब्रद्याण्या वीर्यमदा मत्ता मदबलेन च,वे वेद और ब्राह्मणके विरोधी, पराक्रमके नशेमें चूर तथा अहंकार और बलसे मतवाले होकर इधर-उधर आश्रमवासी महर्षियोंका भी तिरस्कार करने लगे
āśramasthān maharṣīn dharṣayantastatastataḥ | abrahmaṇyā vīryamadā mattā madabalena ca ||
毗舍波耶那说道:他们沉醉于自身武勇的傲慢,敌视吠陀与婆罗门,又被狂妄与蛮力所迷惑,四处游荡,甚至骚扰居于林中精舍的诸大圣仙。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Strength and heroism become destructive when joined with mada (arrogant intoxication). Dharma requires reverence for Vedic learning and restraint toward the vulnerable and the spiritually devoted; contempt for sages and brāhmaṇas is portrayed as a clear mark of adharma.
The text describes a group behaving lawlessly: roaming about, they harass the maharṣis living in hermitages. Their conduct is driven by vīryamada—pride in power—and by hostility to the Vedas and brāhmaṇas.
