The verse emphasizes purposeful action supported by courage and trust: once a righteous seeker has come this far, he should not retreat until the aim is achieved, and he should accept appropriate help without fear or hesitation.
A Nāga addresses a brahmin respectfully, assuring him that his journey will not be in vain and inviting him to confidently enlist the Nāga’s aid as an instrument for accomplishing the brahmin’s intended objective.
