पुरुषोत्तम भवान्नाथ बालिशस्य प्रसीद मे । ततः क्षांतमिति प्रोच्य भीमेन सहितो हरिः
puruṣottama bhavānnātha bāliśasya prasīda me | tataḥ kṣāṃtamiti procya bhīmena sahito hariḥ
'Hỡi Puruṣottama, lạy Chúa, xin hãy ban ân cho con, vì con còn trẻ con và ngu muội.' Sau đó Hari, cùng với Bhīma, đáp: 'Hãy để điều đó được tha thứ.'
Narrator (Sūta/Lomaharṣaṇa) describing Hari’s response
Scene: Bhīma pleads as a repentant child before Puruṣottama; Hari answers with a calm gesture of absolution, the atmosphere shifting from war to serenity.
Humility and confession of one’s faults invite divine grace; forgiveness is upheld as dharma.
This verse is narrative setup; the chapter context later praises Guptakṣetra and related sacred installations.
None in this verse; it focuses on repentance and pardon.
