Adhyaya 18 — Arjuna Declines the Throne; Garga Directs Him to Dattatreya; The Gods Defeat the Daityas through Dattatreya’s Vision and the Movement of Lakshmi
दत्तात्रेय उवाच नृणां पदे स्थिता लक्ष्मीर् निलयं सम्प्रयच्छति ।
सक्थ्न्योश्च संस्थिता वस्त्रं तथा नानाविधं वसु ॥
dattātreya uvāca nṛṇāṃ pade sthitā lakṣmīr nilayaṃ samprayacchati / sakthnyoś ca saṃsthitā vastraṃ tathā nānāvidhaṃ vasu
दत्तात्रेय म्हणाले— जेव्हा लक्ष्मी पुरुषाच्या पायांजवळ वास करते, तेव्हा ती निवासस्थान देते. जेव्हा ती जांघांत स्थित असते, तेव्हा वस्त्रे आणि नानाविध धन प्रदान करते.
