कलौ केदारमाहात्म्यं योपि कोपि न वेत्स्यति । यो वेत्स्यति सुपुण्यात्मा सर्वं वेत्स्यति स ध्रुवम्
kalau kedāramāhātmyaṃ yopi kopi na vetsyati | yo vetsyati supuṇyātmā sarvaṃ vetsyati sa dhruvam
कलियुगात केदाराचे माहात्म्य प्रायः कोणीही जाणणार नाही. परंतु जो ते जाणतो तो महापुण्यात्मा; तो निश्चयाने जाणण्याजोगे सर्व काही जाणतो.
