The Birth of Gaṇapati, the Emergence of the Vināyakas, and the Significance of the Fourth Lunar Day
सन्मार्गवर्तिषु यथा सिद्ध्यन्ते विघ्नतः क्रियाः । असत्कारिषु सर्वेषु तद्वदेवमविघ्नतः ॥ २३.३ ॥
sanmārgavartiṣu yathā siddhyante vighnataḥ kriyāḥ | asatkāriṣu sarveṣu tadvadevam avighnataḥ || 23.3 ||
Tak jak wśród tych, którzy kroczą właściwą ścieżką, czyny osiągają spełnienie nawet pośród przeszkód, tak również wśród wszystkich, którzy nie okazują należytego szacunku, to się sprawdza, zaprawdę, bez przeszkody.”
Varāha
It reflects a common Purāṇic concern with dharma-ācāra—how right conduct and disciplined practice are framed as effective even under adverse conditions—illustrating the didactic style of Purāṇic literature.
No specific geographic location is named in this verse; it is framed as a general ethical and practical maxim rather than a sacred-geography notice.
The verse contrasts alignment with the “right path” (sanmārga) and the absence of proper regard (asatkāra), emphasizing that the disposition and conduct of agents are central to the success and character of actions.
