As [one cannot tell apart] high ground and low when Vasava [Indra] pours down [rain], so was the whole earth flooded with blood. Six thousand of the best heroes, and again a thousand of the best kshatriyas, the bull among kshatriyas sent to the world of death.

The image 'yathā sthalaṃ nimnaṃ ca na syāt,' 'high and low cannot be told apart [in a flood],' — blood levels the ground like Indra's downpour. Thus death erases distinctions — the noble and the common, the high and the low. It is telling that in blood, as in a flood, all boundaries vanish. The verse teaches the equality before death: as a downpour floods hill and hollow alike without distinction, so does destruction level all — the greatest and the least; and the blood that covered the earth without regard for place is an image of this: before Kala-Time there is neither high nor low.
