श्रीमार्कंडेय उवाच । सप्तकल्पान्तरे नाभूत्कोपींद्रद्युम्नसंज्ञितः । भूपाल किमहं वच्मि तवान्यत्पृच्छ संशयम्
śrīmārkaṃḍeya uvāca | saptakalpāntare nābhūtkopīṃdradyumnasaṃjñitaḥ | bhūpāla kimahaṃ vacmi tavānyatpṛccha saṃśayam
圣者摩尔坎德耶(Śrī Mārkaṇḍeya)说道:“历经七劫之终,世间并无一人名为因陀罗底耶摩那。大王啊,我还能说什么呢?你若另有疑惑,尽可再问。”
Mārkaṇḍeya
Listener: Śaunaka and sages (implied frame)
Scene: Mārkaṇḍeya, serene and authoritative, speaks of seven kalpa-endings; behind him, a symbolic backdrop suggests cosmic cycles—fading crowns, dissolving cities, and a vast sky—while the king appears stunned.
Across kalpas, worldly identity dissolves; lasting value lies in dharma, devotion, and the spiritual record upheld by sages.
No tīrtha is directly glorified in this verse; the broader episode is linked to Naimiṣāraṇya through Mārkaṇḍeya.
None; it invites further questioning to remove doubt (saṁśaya-nivṛtti).
