अखण्डशीलां निर्दोषां यथाहं त्वत्प्रसादतः । लभे भूयोऽपि तां देवि तथात्र कुरु सत्वरम्
akhaṇḍaśīlāṃ nirdoṣāṃ yathāhaṃ tvatprasādataḥ | labhe bhūyo'pi tāṃ devi tathātra kuru satvaram
હે દેવી, તમારા પ્રસાદથી હું ફરી તે અખંડશીલા, નિર્દોષાને પ્રાપ્ત કરું—એવું અહીં ત્વરિત કરી આપો।
Nala
Type: kshetra
Listener: Devī
Scene: Nala pleads to the Goddess for immediate reunion with Damayantī, praising her unbroken virtue; the scene balances sorrow with hope—Devī’s compassionate gaze and Nala’s urgent supplication.
Divine grace is sought not for indulgence but for restoring dharma—here, the sanctity of marital fidelity and responsibility.
The request is embedded in the Hāṭakeśvara-kṣetra Māhātmya and the Carmamuṇḍā-tīrtha narrative associated with Nala.
No formal rite is given; the verse is a direct prayer (prārthanā) for immediate divine intervention.
