The Brahmin boy considered Maharaj Parikshit as 'Kulamgara' or the cinder of the dynasty but factually the Brahmin boy himself was so because from him only the Brahmin caste became powerless like the snake broken by its poison teeth. The snake is fearful so long the poison teeth is there otherwise the snake is fearful only for the children and not for the elderly men who knows the secret. The personality of Kali thus conquered over the Brahmin boy first and gradually over the other caste and the whole scientific system of the orders of society in this age has assumed a form vitiated caste system now attempted to be uprooted by another class of men similarly influenced by the age of Kali. One should see to the root cause of vitiation and may not try to condemn the system as it is without any knowledge of its scientific value. #/div# #/div# please wait#div class="mw-parser-output"##p class="mw-empty-elt"# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="TEXT_37"#TEXT 37#/span##/h4# #div class="verse"# #dl##dd#iti laṅghita-maryādaṁ#/dd# #dd#takṣakaḥ saptame 'hani#/dd# #dd#daṅkṣyati sma kulāṅgāraṁ#/dd# #dd#codito me tata-druham#/dd##/dl# #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="SYNONYMS"#SYNONYMS#/span##/h4# #div class="synonyms"# #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=iti&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#iti#/i# — thus; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=laṅghita&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#laṅghita#/i# — surpassing; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=maryādam&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#maryādam#/i# — etiquette; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=takṣakaḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#takṣakaḥ#/i# — snake-bird; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=saptame&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#saptame#/i# — on the seventh; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=ahani&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#ahani#/i# — day; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=daṅkṣyati&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#daṅkṣyati#/i# — will bite; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=sma&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#sma#/i# — certainly; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=kula&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#kula-#a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=aṅgāram&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#aṅgāram#/i# — the wretched of the dynasty; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=coditaḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#coditaḥ#/i# — having done; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=me&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#me#/i# — my; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=tata&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#tata-#a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=druham&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#druham#/i# — enmity towards the father. #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="TRANSLATION"#TRANSLATION#/span##/h4# #div class="translation"# The brāhmaṇa's son cursed the King thus: On the seventh day from today a snake-bird will bite the most wretched one of that dynasty [Mahārāja Parīkṣit] because of his having broken the laws of etiquette by insulting my father. #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="PURPORT"#PURPORT#/span##/h4# #div class="purport"# Thus the beginning of the misuse of brahminical power began, and gradually the #i#brāhmaṇas#/i# in the age of Kali became devoid of both brahminical powers and culture.
