सा विष्णुना विवाहार्थं ततश्चैवानुमोदिता । ईश्वरेण कृतं नाम गायत्री च तवानुगम्
sā viṣṇunā vivāhārthaṃ tataścaivānumoditā | īśvareṇa kṛtaṃ nāma gāyatrī ca tavānugam
پھر وشنو نے شادی کے لیے اسے منظور فرمایا؛ اور ایشور نے اس کا نام ‘گایتری’ رکھا کہ وہ تمہاری ہمراہ رہے۔
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) to the sages (deduced)
Scene: Viṣṇu grants approval for marriage; Īśvara bestows the name ‘Gāyatrī’ upon the maiden, indicating her destined companionship; a sacral naming moment within a ritual setting.
Purāṇic dharma portrays divine cooperation—Viṣṇu’s assent and Īśvara’s naming together safeguard sacred order.
The tīrtha is supported through the sanctifying backstory of Gāyatrī within the chapter; this verse itself highlights the divine authorization behind the event.
Implicitly, the legitimacy of vivāha for completing yajña-dharma; no direct instruction like snāna/dāna/japa appears here.
