Agastya’s Instruction on Bhakti and Mantra-Siddhi; Descent to Pātāla and the Hearing of Vaiṣṇavī Kathā
एकदाहमनुप्राप्तो ऽनन्तदर्शनकाङ्क्षया / पातालं नागराचैन्द्रैः शोभितं परया मुदा
ekadāhamanuprāpto 'nantadarśanakāṅkṣayā / pātālaṃ nāgarācaindraiḥ śobhitaṃ parayā mudā
Once, longing for the vision of Ananta, I came to Pātāla; it was splendid with nāga-kings and Indra-like lords, filled with supreme joy.
