Yayāti’s Proclamation of Hari-Worship and the Ideal Vaiṣṇava Society
in the Mata–Pitri Tirtha Cycle
कल्पद्रुमाः सुपुण्यास्ते सर्वकामफलप्रदाः । सर्वकामदुघा गावः सचिंतामणयस्तथा
kalpadrumāḥ supuṇyāste sarvakāmaphalapradāḥ | sarvakāmadughā gāvaḥ saciṃtāmaṇayastathā
そのカルパドゥルマの如意樹はきわめて功徳深く、あらゆる願いの果を授ける。同様に、望むものをすべて与える如意の牝牛、そして如意宝珠チンターマニもまた然り。
Narratorial description (speaker not specified in the provided excerpt)
Concept: When dharma is aligned with Viṣṇu’s grace, the world itself becomes a giver of needs and even desires—abundance is portrayed as a byproduct of sacred order.
Application: Reframe desires: seek ‘sarva-kāma’ through dharmic means—charity, restraint, and devotion—so prosperity does not become bondage; practice contentment even amid plenty.

FAQs
Kalpadrumas are mythic wish-fulfilling trees; they are termed ‘supuṇya’ because their presence and gifts are associated with extraordinary merit and auspiciousness.
It refers to cows that ‘milk forth’ or yield whatever is desired—an allusion to the archetype of wish-fulfilling cows (often associated with Kāmadhenu).
The verse frames abundance as connected to merit (puṇya), implying that prosperity and fulfillment are portrayed as outcomes linked to righteousness and sacred order rather than mere acquisition.
