ऋश्यशृङ्ग-आनयनम्
Bringing Ṛśyaśṛṅga to Aṅga and His Marriage to Śāntā
ऋषिपुत्रवचश्श्रुत्वा सर्वासां मतिरास वै।तदाश्रमपदं द्रष्टुं जग्मुस्सर्वाश्च तेन ता:।। ।।
ṛṣi-putra-vacaḥ śrutvā sarvāsāṃ matir āsa vai |
tad āśrama-padaṃ draṣṭuṃ jagmuḥ sarvāś ca tena tāḥ ||
Ouvindo as palavras do filho do ṛṣi, todas ficaram verdadeiramente ansiosas por ver aquele āśrama; e todas aquelas mulheres foram para lá juntamente com ele.
After listening to the words of the sage's son (Rsyasringa), all the beautiful women with a desire to see the hermitage accompanied him.
The scene frames the āśrama as a dharmic space of hospitality; it also cautions that dharmic openness can be exploited when others approach with hidden motives.
The women accept Ṛśyaśṛṅga’s invitation and proceed with him to see his hermitage.
Ṛśyaśṛṅga’s trusting nature and readiness to host; the women’s coordinated intent to proceed with their plan.
