The Liberation of the Lizard
Godhā-vimukti
तस्य तां स्थिरतां ज्ञात्वा सह तेनैव सा पुरी । जगाम स्वर्गलोकं च इंद्रादीनामनुज्ञया ॥ ६३ ॥
tasya tāṃ sthiratāṃ jñātvā saha tenaiva sā purī | jagāma svargalokaṃ ca iṃdrādīnāmanujñayā || 63 ||
众神知晓他坚贞不移的决心,那座城也与他一同,在因陀罗等诸天的许可下,前往天界。

Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: adbhuta
Secondary Rasa: bhakti
The verse highlights that unwavering steadiness in dharma can elevate not only an individual but also their entire community (symbolized by “the city”), culminating in a divinely sanctioned ascent to Svarga.
While Bhakti is not named directly here, the motif of firm steadfastness aligns with single-pointed commitment—an essential bhakti quality—whose fruit is recognized and approved by higher divine authorities (Indra and the devas).
No specific Vedanga (like Vyakarana, Jyotisha, or Kalpa) is taught in this verse; it primarily conveys a dharmic-phala principle—steadfast conduct leading to a higher loka with deva-sanction.
