श्रीविष्णु रुवाच । परितुष्टोस्मि ते दैत्य शौर्येण शिवसंश्रयात् । वरं वरय भद्रं ते यदिच्छसि महामते
śrīviṣṇu ruvāca | parituṣṭosmi te daitya śauryeṇa śivasaṃśrayāt | varaṃ varaya bhadraṃ te yadicchasi mahāmate
ଶ୍ରୀ ବିଷ୍ଣୁ କହିଲେ—ହେ ଦୈତ୍ୟ, ଶିବାଶ୍ରୟରେ ଭିତ୍ତିକୃତ ତୁମ ଶୌର୍ଯ୍ୟରେ ମୁଁ ପ୍ରସନ୍ନ। ହେ ମହାମତି, ତୁମର ମଙ୍ଗଳ ହେଉ; ଯାହା ଇଚ୍ଛା ସେହି ବର ମାଗ।
Śrī Viṣṇu
Tirtha: Dvārakā-kṣetra (liṅga-associated spot leading to Kuśeśvara)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Daitya/Danuja
Scene: Viṣṇu/Kṛṣṇa addresses the daitya with calm authority, praising his valor because it is rooted in Śiva’s refuge, and offers a boon; the scene radiates reconciliation and divine largesse.
Refuge in Śiva is honored even by Viṣṇu, presenting devotion as non-sectarian and dharma as harmonizing the deities.
The boon-dialogue occurs within Dvārakā Māhātmya, reinforcing Dvārakā as a locus of divine dialogue and blessing.
No explicit ritual; the verse introduces varadāna (granting of a boon) as a divine response to valor and devotion.
