Brahmā’s Puṣkara Sacrifice: Kokāmukha Tīrtha, Varāha’s Aid, and the Arrival of Gāyatrī
यावद्यज्ञसमाप्तिर्मे वर्णे त्वां मा कृथा मनः । भूयोपि तां प्रमोक्ष्यामि समाप्तौ तु क्रतोरिह
yāvadyajñasamāptirme varṇe tvāṃ mā kṛthā manaḥ | bhūyopi tāṃ pramokṣyāmi samāptau tu kratoriha
Sehingga yajñaku selesai, janganlah engkau menaruh hati untuk memperkatakannya. Apabila kratu ini berakhir di sini, aku akan melepaskannya kembali.

Sandhi Resolution Notes: yāvadyajñasamāptiḥ → yāvat + yajña-samāptiḥ; samāptir me → samāptiḥ + me; bhūyo'pi → bhūyaḥ + api; krator iha → kratoḥ + iha.
It stresses postponing speech or disclosure until the yajña is properly concluded, reflecting the importance of orderly completion of ritual acts.
This specific verse is primarily framed in yajña (ritual) discipline rather than explicit bhakti theology, emphasizing completion of the rite and controlled speech.
It highlights restraint and responsibility: do not act or speak prematurely; fulfill obligations first, then take the intended compassionate action (“I will release her again”).
