अकाले तेन मुक्ताऽसि निवृत्तिः सुरते कृता । पुत्रार्थं ते समारंभो यतश्चासीत्सुरेश्वरि
akāle tena muktā'si nivṛttiḥ surate kṛtā | putrārthaṃ te samāraṃbho yataścāsītsureśvari
噫,诸天之后,他在未及其时便放开了你,并从爱欲的结合中退却——因为你的发愿与行持,皆为求得一子。
Śiva (Trinetra/Hara)
Tirtha: Arbuda-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Ṛṣis/pilgrims
Scene: Śiva explains that Devī was released before the proper time; union was withdrawn due to the purposeful undertaking for a son.
Even divine events follow purposeful dharma—intent (putrārtha) shapes outcomes in sacred narratives.
The immediate verse is narrative-focused; the broader setting is Arbuda within the Prabhāsa-khaṇḍa.
No ritual is prescribed; it explains a causal reason within the origin narrative.
