वराह उवाच ॥ सर्वं तत्कथयिष्यामि सर्वलोकसुखावहम् ॥ यच्च कुब्जाम्रके पुष्टिर्यच्च तीर्थमनिन्दिते
varāha uvāca || sarvaṃ tat kathayiṣyāmi sarvalokasukhāvaham || yacca kubjāmrake puṣṭir yacca tīrtham anindite
वराह बोले, मैं सब कुछ बताऊँगा जो सबकी खुशी का काम करे। कुब्जाम्रक की बरकत और उस तीर्थ की बात, दोनों समझाऊँगा।
