Hanūmān’s Embrace, Counsel, and Promise to Amplify Bhīma’s Battle-Roar
Gandhamādana Continuation
देवदानवगन्धर्वयक्षराक्षसपन्नगा: । नासन् कृतयुगे तात तदा न क्रयविक्रय:,तात! कृतयुगमें देवता, दानव, गन्धर्व, यक्ष, राक्षस और नाग नहीं थे, अर्थात् ये परस्पर भेद-भाव नहीं रखते थे। उस समय क्रय-विक्रयका व्यवहार भी नहीं था
devadānavagandharvayakṣarākṣasapannagāḥ | nāsan kṛtayuge tāta tadā na krayavikrayaḥ ||
毗摩说:“孩子啊,在克利多劫中,并无天神、阿修罗(达那婆)、乾闼婆、夜叉、罗刹或龙蛇等彼此分立的类别——没有种类间的分隔与敌对。在那一劫里,连买卖交易之事也不存在。”
भीम उवाच
The verse idealizes the Kṛta Yuga as an age of undivided social-spiritual harmony: beings are not split into antagonistic categories, and commerce (buying/selling) is absent—implying minimal greed, ownership-anxiety, and exploitation, with life sustained by dharma rather than transaction.
Bhīma is describing characteristics of the Kṛta Yuga to his listener, contrasting that primordial era with later ages where distinctions, conflict, and economic exchange arise.
