धनंजय उवाच । महदेतन्ममाश्चर्यं श्रोतव्यं परमं मुने । कुमारीचरितं सर्वं ब्रूहि मह्यं सविस्तरम्
dhanaṃjaya uvāca | mahadetanmamāścaryaṃ śrotavyaṃ paramaṃ mune | kumārīcaritaṃ sarvaṃ brūhi mahyaṃ savistaram
धनंजय म्हणाला—हे मुने, हे माझ्यासाठी महान आश्चर्य आहे व परम श्रवणीय आहे. कुमारिकेचे सर्व चरित्र व तिची कृत्ये मला सविस्तर सांगावे.
Dhanaṃjaya (Arjuna)
Listener: Śrī Nārada
Scene: Arjuna (Dhanaṃjaya) expresses wonder and requests the sage to narrate the full Kumārī-carita; hands folded, attentive posture, the sage poised to begin the detailed account.
A sincere desire to hear sacred history (kathā-śravaṇa) is presented as a high spiritual qualification and a doorway to dharma and devotion.
No specific tīrtha is named in this verse; it functions as an introductory request for the Kumārī narrative within the Kaumārikākhaṇḍa.
None explicitly—this verse emphasizes śravaṇa (devout listening) rather than a stated rite.
