प्रतिगृह वरं देवास्तस्माद् विबुधसत्तमात् । प्रीतात्मानो महात्मानो मेनिरे निहतान् रिपून्,उन सुरश्रेष्ठ कुमारसे वह वर पाकर महामनस्वी देवता बड़े प्रसन्न हुए और अपने शत्रुओंको मरा हुआ ही मानने लगे
pratigṛhya varaṃ devās tasmād vibudhasattamāt | prītātmāno mahātmāno menire nihatān ripūn ||
त्या सुरश्रेष्ठाकडून वर मिळताच महात्मा देवता हर्षित झाले. प्रीतचित्त होऊन त्यांनी शत्रूंना जणू आधीच निहत मानले—वरदानाने त्यांच्या मनात विजयाची निश्चयता दृढ झाली.

When a rightful boon or divine sanction is obtained, it can transform hesitation into firm resolve; inner joy and moral certainty arise, and victory is envisioned as already secured—highlighting the psychological and ethical power of legitimate support.
Vaiśampāyana narrates that the gods, having received a boon from the foremost divine being, become greatly pleased and, strengthened by that boon, regard their enemies as effectively already defeated.
