Draupadī’s Instruction on Marital Conduct and Household Discipline (चित्तग्रहण-उपदेश)
महतां चैव भूतानां सर्वेषामिह यः पति: । भगवान् स महातेजा नित्यं चरति पावक:
mahatāṃ caiva bhūtānāṃ sarveṣām iha yaḥ patiḥ | bhagavān sa mahātejā nityaṃ carati pāvakaḥ ||
যিনি এই জগতে সকল মহাভূত—এবং সকল সত্তার—অধিপতি, তিনিই ভগবান। সেই মহাতেজস্বী পাৱক সর্বদা সর্বত্র বিচরণ করেন।
