कल्मषापहर-कीर्तनम् / Kīrtana for the Removal of Impurity
सुखभागी निरायासो निरुद्धवेग: सदा नर: । एष देवि सतां मार्गो बाधा यत्र न विद्यते
sukhabhāgī nirāyāso niruddhavegaḥ sadā naraḥ | eṣa devi satāṁ mārgo bādhā yatra na vidyate ||
Mahādeva dijo: «Tal persona llega a ser partícipe de la dicha: vive sin esfuerzo, con los impulsos refrenados y siempre firme. Oh Devī, éste es el sendero de los buenos: una forma de vida en la que ninguna aflicción ni fuerza obstructora puede echar raíces».

Educational Q&A
The core teaching is that the ‘path of the good’ is marked by inner restraint and steadiness: when impulses are controlled and life is aligned with dharma, one naturally lives with less agitation, enjoys well-being, and obstacles lose their power to disturb.
Śrī Mahādeva addresses Devī, describing the character and outcome of a virtuous person: such a person remains calm and self-governed, and therefore proceeds on a righteous path where afflictions and impediments do not prevail.
