Then, having given what they desired to the brahmins brought by Nandin,
who were equal to Brahmā, she had them pronounce the blessing of an auspicious day.
Then, at the conclusion of the proclamation of the auspicious day and of the benediction of both,
having obtained her husband's consent, the goddess said to those seers:
“Venerable ones, I who am childless will adopt this aśoka sapling
as a son today; you ought to grant your permission.”
To the goddess Pārvatī who was speaking thus, yearning for a son,
all the twice-born said with one voice: “Let him be taken as you desire!”
