The Vaiṣṇavī Goddess on Mount Mandara: Emergence of the Maidens, Construction of the Goddess-City, and Nārada’s Visit
एवमुक्त्वा क्षणं स्थित्वा तमनुज्ञाप्य नारदः । यथागतं ययौ धीमानन्तर्धानेन तत्क्षणात् ॥
evam uktvā kṣaṇaṃ sthitvā tam anujñāpya nāradaḥ | yathāgataṃ yayau dhīmān antardhānena tatkṣaṇāt ||
नारद ने इतना कहके थोड़ा रुका। फिर उसको लीव लिया और वैसे ही गायब हो गया जैसे आया था।
