Shloka 128
Śiva-nāmānukīrtana-prastāvaḥ
Prologue to the praise of Śiva and the Upamanyu testimony
त॑ प्रपद्य सदा वत्स सर्वभावेन शड्करम् | तत्प्रसादाच्च कामेभ्य: फल प्राप्स्यसि पुत्रक,“बेटा! सदा सर्वतोभावसे उन्हीं भगवान् शंकरकी शरण लेकर उनकी कृपासे ही इच्छानुसार फल पा सकोगे'
taṁ prapadya sadā vatsa sarvabhāvena śaṅkaram | tatprasādāc ca kāmebhyaḥ phalaṁ prāpsyasi putraka ||
ヴァースデーヴァは言った。「愛しい子よ、常に全身全霊をもってシャンカラに帰依せよ。その御加護によってのみ、汝は望むままに求める果報を得るであろう。」
वासुदेव उवाच
Educational Q&A
Wholehearted surrender to Śaṅkara is presented as the ethical and effective means to attain desired outcomes; results are framed as arising from divine grace rather than mere personal effort.
Vāsudeva addresses a younger listener affectionately, instructing him to seek Śiva’s refuge continually and assuring him that, through Śiva’s favor, he will gain the fruits he seeks.
