Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 58
त्वं युक्तिः सर्वभूतानां त्वं गतिः सर्वदेहिनाम् । रतिस्त्वं रतिचित्तानां प्रीतिस्त्वं हृद्यदर्शिनाम्
tvaṃ yuktiḥ sarvabhūtānāṃ tvaṃ gatiḥ sarvadehinām | ratistvaṃ raticittānāṃ prītistvaṃ hṛdyadarśinām
أنتِ الحكمةُ المُميِّزة لجميع الكائنات، وأنتِ الغايةُ والملجأ لكل ذي جسد. أنتِ لذّةُ من تتوق نفوسُهم إلى اللذّة، وأنتِ فرحُ المحبة لمن يشهدون ما هو عزيزٌ على قلوبهم.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta) (deduced from Māheśvarakhaṇḍa framing)
Scene: Devī as the inner compass: beings of different stations—ascetics, householders, lovers—turning toward the same luminous center; the scene balances serenity with gentle human affection.
