Shloka 13
सर्वौषधी: समावाप्य सर्वरत्नानि चैव ह । मन्थध्वमुदर्धि देवा वेत्स्यध्वममृतं तत:,“देवताओ! पहले समस्त ओषधियों, फिर सम्पूर्ण रत्नोंको पाकर भी समुद्रका मन््थन जारी रखो। इससे अन्तमें तुमलोगोंको निश्चय ही अमृतकी प्राप्ति होगी”
sarvauṣadhīḥ samāvāpya sarvaratnāni caiva ha | manthadhvam udadhiṃ devā vetsyadhvam amṛtaṃ tataḥ ||
绍那迦转述对诸天的劝勉：“诸天啊！纵然先得尽诸药草，又得尽诸珍宝，也当继续搅动大海，不可稍懈。唯有坚持到最后，你们必定获得甘露（amṛta）。”此段彰显坚忍与恒心：真正的报偿来自持久而有纪律的精进，而非止步于途中所得。

Do not stop at partial successes: even after gaining valuable results (herbs and gems), one should persist in the rightful undertaking until its true goal is reached (amṛta). The verse underscores disciplined perseverance and patience as a dharmic virtue.
In the account of the churning of the ocean (samudra-manthana), the gods are urged to keep churning even after earlier treasures emerge; continued effort will finally yield amṛta, the nectar of immortality.
