毗舍摩波耶那说道：那里充满了放纵者与醉者混杂的喧嚣——夸耀般的喷鼻声、震耳的呼喊与骚动的嘶叫——昭示着自制的沦失，以及当情欲与傲慢压倒戒律时随之而来的道德危机。

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how heedlessness and intoxication (literal or emotional—pride, excitement, aggression) create social and moral chaos. In the epic’s ethical frame, such loss of restraint is a warning sign: when discipline and discernment collapse, violence and adharma easily spread.
The narrator describes a scene (typically a martial or public gathering) as noisy and tumultuous—packed with loud cries and challenging sounds from people who are careless and carried away. The emphasis is on the atmosphere of uncontrolled excitement and confusion.
