आजगामाश्रमपदं संपदामाश्रयं यतः । आगम्योवाच देवेशो गिरिजां स्पष्टया गिरा
ājagāmāśramapadaṃ saṃpadāmāśrayaṃ yataḥ | āgamyovāca deveśo girijāṃ spaṣṭayā girā
พระองค์เสด็จมาถึงอาศรม อันเป็นที่พึ่งแห่งความสมบูรณ์พรั่งพร้อม ครั้นเสด็จถึงแล้ว พระผู้เป็นใหญ่แห่งเทวะทั้งหลายตรัสกับคิริชา (ปารวตี) ด้วยถ้อยคำชัดเจน
Deveśa (Śiva/Maheśvara)
Concept: Sacred space (āśrama) attracts divine presence; clear speech (spaṣṭayā girā) is itself a dharmic act that stabilizes relationships and resolves tension.
Application: Create an ‘āśrama’ in daily life—clean, prayerful space; speak plainly and kindly when addressing conflict or vows.
