Educational Q&A

The verse presents divinely guided kingship: rightful victory over an oppressive ruler leads to the reordering of political authority, and the wealth that follows is portrayed as the lawful tribute of reconciled kings rather than mere plunder.

Īśvara foretells that Śrīhari will defeat King Jarāsandha at the mountain stronghold of Girigadnara/Rājagṛha, after which many kings will offer jewels and treasures, making him richly endowed and renowned for valor.
