भगवानुवाच । मत्प्रसादादसंदिग्धं सर्वमेतद्भविष्यति । त्वया यत्प्रार्थितं दैत्य त्वमेको बलवानिह
bhagavānuvāca | matprasādādasaṃdigdhaṃ sarvametadbhaviṣyati | tvayā yatprārthitaṃ daitya tvameko balavāniha
Bhagavān bersabda: “Dengan anugerah-Ku, semua ini pasti akan terjadi tanpa keraguan. Wahai Daitya, apa yang engkau mohon akan Kukaruniakan; di sini engkau akan berdiri sebagai yang paling perkasa.”
Śiva (Bhagavān/Mahādeva)
Listener: Daitya (Tāraka)
Scene: Mahādeva, serene and authoritative, grants a boon to a daitya petitioner; the moment is calm yet portentous, with the trident-bearing Lord’s composure contrasted against the daitya’s eager ambition.
Divine grace can empower even the unworthy, yet Purāṇic dharma implies that such power becomes a test that ultimately restores cosmic balance.
The boon is granted within the Gokarṇa-centered tīrthamāhātmya narrative of this chapter.
None; this verse is the confirmation of the boon (vara-siddhi) by the Lord.
