Hymn to Varāha and Pṛthivī’s Inquiry
Prelude to the Sanatkumāra Dialogue
य इदं पठते स्तोत्रं केशवस्य दृढव्रतः ॥ व्याधितो मुच्यते रोगाद्बद्धो मुच्येत बन्धनात् ॥
ya idaṃ paṭhate stotraṃ keśavasya dṛḍhavrataḥ || vyādhito mucyate rogād baddho mucyeta bandhanāt ||
Sesiapa yang teguh berikrar lalu membaca stotra Keśava ini—jika sakit, dibebaskan daripada penyakit; jika terikat, dilepaskan daripada belenggu.
Varāha (default; stotra-phala often delivered by the instructing voice in Purāṇic framing)
It is a standard Purāṇic stotra-phala statement, relevant for understanding how hymns circulated with promised outcomes, shaping devotional and manuscript transmission practices.
No geographic location is identified; the verse concerns practice and its stated results.
It emphasizes dṛḍhavrata—steadfast discipline—presenting consistent practice as the key condition for the hymn’s intended transformative effects.
