patir hi devo nārīṇāṁ patir bandhuḥ patir gatiḥ | patyā samā gatir nāsti daivataṁ vā yathā patiḥ ||
Translation
Mahādeva dit : « Pour les femmes, l’époux est leur divinité même ; l’époux est leur parent et leur protecteur ; l’époux est leur refuge et leur ultime recours. Il n’est point de soutien égal à l’époux, ni de divinité comparable à lui. »
