निजेच्छया संप्रति यातु लोकान्कीर्तिं वितन्वन्सुखमावयोश्च । ततः प्रभृत्येष सुतोंऽबिकाया लोकान्समग्रान्प्रविहृत्य कामम् ॥ २४ ॥

आता तो आपल्या इच्छेने लोकलोकांत जावो, कीर्ती पसरवो आणि आम्हा दोघांना सुख देओ. तेव्हापासून अंबिकेचा हा पुत्र सर्व लोकांत मनासारखा विहार करू लागला।

FAQs
The verse frames ‘loka-yātrā’ (moving through worlds) as purposeful when aligned with dharma—spreading kīrti (good renown) and generating sukha (well-being) for others, rather than mere wandering.
Bhakti is implied through the ideal of kīrti earned by righteous, God-aligned conduct: true renown in Purāṇic ethics arises from actions that please the sacred order and benefit others, a hallmark of devotional life.
No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa, Jyotiṣa, or Kalpa) is taught directly in this verse; the practical takeaway is ethical—act by right intention (icchā guided by dharma) so that one’s worldly movement yields auspicious results.
