Shloka 22
Vipula’s Yogic Protection of the Guru’s Household (विपुलस्य योगरक्षा / Vipulasya Yogarakṣā)
Devanagari script
यदि पुंसां गतिर्ब्रह्मन् कथंचिन्नोपपद्यते | अप्यन्योन्यं प्रवर्तन्ते न हि तिष्ठिन्ति भर्तृषु
Translation
ਹੇ ਬ੍ਰਹਮਨ! ਜੇ ਕਿਸੇ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਵੀ ਪੁਰਸ਼ ਦੀ ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤੀ ਸੰਭਵ ਨਾ ਰਹੇ ਅਤੇ ਪਤੀ ਵੀ ਦੂਰ ਹੋਣ, ਤਾਂ ਉਹ ਆਪਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਹੀ ਉਪਾਅ ਕਰ ਕੇ ਸੰਭੋਗ ਵੱਲ ਪ੍ਰਵਿਰਤ ਹੋ ਜਾਂਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ; ਉਹ ਕੇਵਲ ਪਤੀਆਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਹੀ ਟਿਕੀਆਂ ਨਹੀਂ ਰਹਿੰਦੀਆਂ।
