तामेव प्रतिगृह्याहं राजन्दुहितरं तव । क्षमिष्यामि महीपाल सत्यमेतद्ब्रवीमि ते
tāmeva pratigṛhyāhaṃ rājanduhitaraṃ tava | kṣamiṣyāmi mahīpāla satyametadbravīmi te
ఓ రాజా! నీ ఆ కుమార్తెనే నేను స్వీకరిస్తే, ఓ భూపాలా, నేను దోషాన్ని క్షమిస్తాను—ఇది నీకు సత్యంగా చెబుతున్నాను।
Cyavana (Bhārgava ṛṣi)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: māhātmya audience
Scene: Cyavana declares a firm condition to the king: acceptance of the king’s daughter will lead to forgiveness; the king appears relieved yet solemn at the weight of the promise.
Forgiveness may be tied to responsible remedy; dharma seeks restoration of order rather than mere punishment.
The verse sits within Prabhāsa-kṣetra Māhātmya’s sacred narrative framework.
No formal rite is prescribed here; the condition is acceptance in marriage as a dharmic resolution.
