Śānti-parva Adhyāya 30: Nārada–Parvata Samaya-bhaṅga, Śāpa, and the Marriage of Sukumārī
नारदं हृच्छयस्तूर्ण सहसैवाभ्यपद्यत । उसकी उस सेवा तथा अनुपम रूप-सौन्दर्यसे नारदके हृदयमें सहसा कामभावका संचार हो गया
nāradaṁ hṛcchayaḥ tūrṇaṁ sahasaivābhyapadyata |
圣克里希纳说道:就在那一刻,爱欲之神迦摩(Kāma)迅疾而骤然地攫住了那罗陀的心。见到对方所奉上的殷勤侍奉与无与伦比的形貌之美,欲念竟在他心中猝然生起——昭示即便名闻遐迩的苦行者,也会在诸根遭逢强烈诱境时受试炼;欲求自制,必赖警觉。
श्रीकृष्ण उवाच
Even the spiritually accomplished can face sudden surges of desire when exposed to powerful sensory triggers; therefore, dharma requires continuous vigilance, restraint, and humility rather than complacency about one’s purity.
Kṛṣṇa narrates that Kāma (‘the heart-dweller’) abruptly takes hold of Nārada’s mind; prompted by attentive service and extraordinary beauty, desire arises in Nārada, setting up a moral-psychological test within the story.
