तत्र तत्र च साभर्तुरर्चां करोति नित्यशः । नैव मत्सरमायाति न कार्पण्यं न मानिनी
tatra tatra ca sābharturarcāṃ karoti nityaśaḥ | naiva matsaramāyāti na kārpaṇyaṃ na māninī
ບ່ອນໃດທີ່ນາງຢູ່ ນາງກໍເຮັດອັຣຈະນາ-ບູຊາ ເພື່ອເກຍດຕິຜົວເປັນນິດ. ນາງບໍ່ຕົກໃນຄວາມອິດສາ ບໍ່ຕົກໃນຄວາມຕະໜີ່ຄັບແຄບ ແລະບໍ່ຕົກໃນຄວາມຖືຕົວ.

Concept: True devotion is portable and ethical: continual honoring (arcā-bhāva) paired with freedom from envy, miserliness, and pride.
Application: Make reverence consistent across contexts (home, travel, work) and actively watch for envy, pettiness, and pride as daily ‘inner impurities’ to uproot.

FAQs
Regular devotion (nityaśaḥ arcā) and inner virtues: freedom from envy (matsara), from petty miserliness or mean-spiritedness (kārpaṇya), and from pride or self-conceit (māna).
It presents devotion as consistent practice “wherever one is,” and links worship with character purification—showing bhakti not only as ritual but as transformation away from envy and pride.
No. The focus is ethical and devotional conduct in daily life rather than specific places; “tatra tatra” functions as “wherever she goes,” not as a list of tīrthas.
