रत्नकंकणमादाय मया सत्यमुदाहृतम् । दिनत्रयमहं पत्नी वैश्यस्यामुष्य संमता
ratnakaṃkaṇamādāya mayā satyamudāhṛtam | dinatrayamahaṃ patnī vaiśyasyāmuṣya saṃmatā
रत्नजडित कंकण घेऊन मी सत्यच उच्चारले होते—तीन दिवस मी त्या वैश्याची पत्नी म्हणून मान्य होते।

Satya (truthfulness) is asserted as a dharmic foundation, even in morally complex social situations.
No location is mentioned in this verse.
None; the verse is a personal testimony about truth and recognized marital status.
