पुरुषायितसंज्ञेन तप्तं यत्तपसाधुना । भवतीभिस्ततः पुंस्त्वमिच्छया वो भविष्यति
puruṣāyitasaṃjñena taptaṃ yattapasādhunā | bhavatībhistataḥ puṃstvamicchayā vo bhaviṣyati
“Vì các nàng đã đúng pháp tu hành khổ hạnh mang danh Puruṣāyita, nên theo chính nguyện ước của các nàng, trạng thái nam tính (puṁstva) sẽ đến với các nàng.”
Śrī Viśveśvara (continuing)
Tirtha: Nakṣatreśvara / Puruṣāyita-tapas site (Kāśī)
Type: kshetra
Listener: The tapas-performing devotees; and the text’s audience
Scene: Viśveśvara declares the fruit of Puruṣāyita-tapas: the devotees’ wished-for manhood will arise; the scene shows a divine pronouncement with subtle symbolic metamorphosis—star motifs, shifting silhouettes, and a radiant blessing descending.
Tapas grants transformative power under divine sanction; even embodied states are shown as subordinate to dharma and the Lord’s grace.
The boon is spoken by Viśveśvara within the Kāśī-khaṇḍa setting, reinforcing Kāśī as the place where extraordinary spiritual results manifest.
The observance/austerity termed ‘Puruṣāyita’ is referenced as the causal practice leading to the boon.
