Shloka 22
कपोती-विलापः स्वर्गसंयोगश्च
The Dove’s Lament and Celestial Reunion
नैव निम्नं स्थलं वापि सो$5विन्दत विहड़हा । पूरितो हि जलौघेन तस्य मार्गो वनस्य च,वनका मार्ग जिसपर वह चलता था, जलके प्रवाहमें डूब गया था। उस बहेलियेको नीची-ऊँची भूमिका कुछ पता नहीं चलता था
naiva nimnaṃ sthalaṃ vāpi so 'vindata vihaṅgamaḥ | pūrito hi jalaughena tasya mārgo vanasya ca ||
毗湿摩说道：那捕鸟人已分不清低地与高地。因为洪流淹没了他所行之路，连林间小径也尽被水覆，他再也辨不出道路所在。

Educational Q&A
When circumstances become overwhelming—like a flood erasing paths—human judgment can fail; ethical conduct then requires caution, restraint, and reliance on sound guidance rather than impulsive action.
Bhishma describes a situation where a bird-catcher/hunter is disoriented because floodwaters have submerged both the route and the forest paths, making it impossible to distinguish safe ground or direction.
