The Origin of the Lauhitya River
and the King of Tīrthas
आवयोः सर्वकल्याणं फलिष्यति मनोगतम् । ततः पतिव्रता तस्य आज्ञामागृह्य संभवात्
āvayoḥ sarvakalyāṇaṃ phaliṣyati manogatam | tataḥ pativratā tasya ājñāmāgṛhya saṃbhavāt
เพื่อเราทั้งสอง ความปรารถนาอันเป็นมงคลที่เก็บไว้ในดวงใจจักบังเกิดผล ครั้นแล้วภรรยาผู้มั่นคงในพรตแห่งสามีรับพระบัญชาของเขาและดำเนินไปตามนั้น

Sandhi Resolution Notes: ājñāmāgṛhya = ājñām + āgṛhya.
No. This verse focuses on auspicious fulfillment of wishes and the conduct of a devoted wife accepting an instruction; it does not name any tīrtha or region.
Indirectly: it emphasizes devotion and faithful adherence to a revered authority’s instruction, a pattern that also appears in Bhakti ethics, though no deity or explicit Vaishnava doctrine is stated here.
It highlights confidence in auspicious outcomes and the virtue of disciplined fidelity—accepting rightful instruction and acting accordingly (presented through the ideal of the pativratā).
