“ভৱানী, তোমাৰ কাৰণেই মই এই পণ ধৰিছোঁ—ইয়া মহৎ অলংকাৰ: চন্দ্ৰলেখা-অলংকাৰ, এক মহান হাৰ, আৰু তদুপৰি কাণৰ পদুম-অলংকাৰৰ যোৰা।”
Śiva (Trilocana/Śaṅkara) speaking to Pārvatī (within Sūta’s narration)
Tirtha: Kedāra (Kedāranātha)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Śiva explains the wager: magnificent ornaments—crescent-moon ornament, a great necklace, and twin lotus-ear ornaments—offered ‘for your sake’ to Bhavānī.
Even in play, the divine intention is benevolent—Śiva frames the stake as being ‘for Bhavānī,’ hinting that true giving is rooted in goodwill.
The chapter belongs to Kedārakhaṇḍa, associated with Kedāra’s sacred landscape; this verse itself emphasizes the Śiva–Pārvatī līlā.
None explicitly; it lists the wagered ornaments.
