Agastya’s Instruction on Bhakti and Mantra-Siddhi; Descent to Pātāla and the Hearing of Vaiṣṇavī Kathā
उपासत ह्युपा सीना ज्ञानार्थं फणिनायकम् / तं नमस्कृत्य नागैन्द्रैः सह सिद्धैर्महात्मभिः
upāsata hyupā sīnā jñānārthaṃ phaṇināyakam / taṃ namaskṛtya nāgaindraiḥ saha siddhairmahātmabhiḥ
Seated in worship, seeking sacred knowledge, they adored Phaṇināyaka, lord of the serpents; and, with nāga-kings and great-souled siddhas, they bowed to him in reverence.
