Devanagari script

यथा भवति लोकेषु तथा त्वं कर्तुमर्हसि । मम तेजस्त्वया शक्यं गृहीतुं सुरसत्तम । देवकार्यार्थसिद्ध्यर्थं नान्यः शक्तो जगत्त्रये

Transliteration

yathā bhavati lokeṣu tathā tvaṃ kartumarhasi | mama tejastvayā śakyaṃ gṛhītuṃ surasattama | devakāryārthasiddhyarthaṃ nānyaḥ śakto jagattraye

Translation

ಲೋಕಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಹೇಗೆ ಸಾಧ್ಯವೋ ಹಾಗೆಯೇ ನೀನು ಮಾಡಬೇಕಾಗಿದೆ. ಓ ದೇವಶ್ರೇಷ್ಠ, ನನ್ನ ತೇಜಸ್ಸನ್ನು ನೀನೇ ಗ್ರಹಿಸಬಲ್ಲೆ; ದೇವಕಾರ್ಯಸಿದ್ಧಿಗಾಗಿ ತ್ರಿಲೋಕದಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ಬೇರೆ ಯಾರೂ ಸಮರ್ಥರಲ್ಲ.

FAQs

Dharma includes capacity-based duty: the one who is fit (adhikārī) must bear the task for the welfare of the worlds.

No specific tīrtha is praised in this verse; it supports the wider Revā Khaṇḍa sacred narrative frame.

None as a rite; it is a divine instruction about bearing tejas for a cosmic mission.
