Significado
Such a pious king as Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira at once became perturbed when there were such inhuman symptoms as greed, anger, irreligiosity and hypocrisy rampant in society. It appears from this statement that all these symptoms of degraded society were unknown to the people of the time, and it was astonishing for them to have experienced them with the advent of the Kali-yuga, or the age of quarrel.
Un rey tan piadoso como lo era Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, de inmediato se perturbó cuando por toda la sociedad aparecieron signos tan inhumanos como la codicia, la ira, la irreligiosidad y la hipocresía. De esta declaración se infiere que todos esos síntomas de una sociedad degradada le eran desconocidos a la gente de la época, y a ellos les resultó asombroso experimentarlos con el advenimiento de Kali-yuga, o la era de la riña.
