Arundhatî, after worshipping Pârvatî, the daughter of Menâ, obtained the highest yoga. By worshipping the same Pârvatî, Pururavâ became Râjarṣi, Yayâti begot progeny and Paraśurâma obtained wealth. Similarly, many Devas, Daityas, Brâhmaṇas, Kṣatriyas, Vaiśyas and Śûdras obtained supernatural faculties. Wherever there is a book containing the names of Pârvatî which is worshipped along with the Gods, no calamity befalls there.—60-64. > — A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, The Matsya Puranam - [Previous: 13.58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.13.58) - [Next: 13.60](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.13.60) - [Up: 13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.13) ## Translations (2) - [The Matsya Puranam](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya~en-taluqdar.13.p17) — A Taluqdar of Oudh 1916, English - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya~en-mt.13.59) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [Matsya](https://indike.org/pramana/in.astro.samhita.matsya.12.60) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.13.59](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.matsya.13.59) · Pramāṇa
