दृष्ट्वा सर्वार्त्तिहरणं यस्या देव्याः सुखी नरः ॥ अग्रॊत्तरं शुभवरं शकुनार्थं च याचतः ॥
dṛṣṭvā sarvārttiharaṇaṁ yasyā devyāḥ sukhī naraḥ || agrottaraṁ śubhavaraṁ śakunārthaṁ ca yācataḥ ||
जब कोई उस देवी को देखता है जो सब परेशानी दूर करती है, वो खुश हो जाता है। फिर वो अच्छा वरदान माँगता है। अच्छे शकुन के लिए भी पूछता है।
