ドゥルヴァ・マハーラージャが道を進むと、近隣の貞淑な主婦たちがあちこちから集い、母のような慈愛で祝福しつつ、白い芥子、麦、凝乳、水、芽生えたドゥールヴァ草、果実と花を降らせた。彼女らの麗しい歌を聞きながら、ドゥルヴァは父王の宮殿へ入った。
This verse shows that when Dhruva was seen returning, people—especially the city women—honored him with auspicious offerings, reflecting reverence for a devotee blessed by the Lord.
These are traditional auspicious articles used to bless and honor someone returning in purity and success, and they expressed affectionate respect for Dhruva’s spiritual achievement.
Honor saintly people and spiritual practice with sincere respect—welcome goodness, devotion, and virtue in your home and community through supportive, uplifting actions.
