Doha 77
कह सिव जदपि उचित अस नाहीं। नाथ बचन पुनि मेटि न जाहीं॥ सिर धरि आयसु करिअ तुम्हारा। परम धरमु यह नाथ हमारा॥१॥
मातु पिता गुर प्रभु कै बानी। बिनहिं बिचार करिअ सुभ जानी॥ तुम्ह सब भाँति परम हितकारी। अग्या सिर पर नाथ तुम्हारी॥२॥
प्रभु तोषेउ सुनि संकर बचना। भक्ति बिबेक धर्म जुत रचना॥ कह प्रभु हर तुम्हार पन रहेऊ। अब उर राखेहु जो हम कहेऊ॥३॥
अंतरधान भए अस भाषी। संकर सोइ मूरति उर राखी॥ तबहिं सप्तरिषि सिव पहिं आए। बोले प्रभु अति बचन सुहाए॥४॥
Meaning
Śiva replied, “Although this is hardly justifiable, the words of a master cannot be disregarded, all the same. My lord, your command must be respectfully carried out: this is my paramount duty. (1) “The words of one’s parents, teacher and master must be unquestionably obeyed as conducive to bliss. You are my supreme benefactor in everyway; therefore, my lord, I bow to Your command.” (2) The Lord was pleased to hear the well-chosen words of Śaṅkara, which were replete with devotion, wisdom and piety. The Lord said, “Your vow has been kept; now bear in mind what I have told You.” (3) Saying so, He vanished out of sight. Śaṅkara cherished the vision in His heart. That very moment the Seven Seers called on Śiva. The Lord spoke to them in most charming accents: (4)
पारबती पहिं जाइ तुम्ह प्रेम परिच्छा लेहु। गिरिहि प्रेरि पठएहु भवन दूरि करेहु संदेहु॥७७॥
Meaning
“Going to Pārvatī, you put her love to the test. Then directing her father Himācala to her, send her back to her home and dispel her doubts.” (77)
