Adhyaya 23 — Ashvatara’s Vow for Madalasa and the Bestowal of Musical Science by Sarasvati
समुत्पत्स्यति कल्याणी तथारूपा यथामृता ।
एतच्छ्रुत्वा ततस्तौ तु प्रणिपत्य महेश्वरम् ॥
samutpatsyati kalyāṇī tathārūpā yathāmṛtā | etac chrutvā tatas tau tu praṇipatya maheśvaram ||
ആ ശുഭസ്ത്രീ മരിച്ചപ്പോൾ ഉണ്ടായിരുന്ന അതേ രൂപത്തിൽ തന്നെ ഉദ്ഭവിക്കും. ഇത് കേട്ട് ആ ഇരുവരും മഹേശ്വരനെ നമസ്കരിച്ചു വീണു।

To ‘hear’ and then ‘bow’ reflects śravaṇa leading to namratā (humility), a classic inner sequence: knowledge received becomes ego-softening devotion.
