"Oh! Rāma! nobody plucks and wears those flowers. They neither fade nor fall down. While the disciples of Mataṅga were carrying a load of flowers for him, they sweated on account of exhaustion and some drops of sweat fell on earth which developed themselves into flowers due to the prowess of the guru's tapas. Even today may be seen there Śabarī, who has taken to sannyāsa and who tends the flowers. She will attain heaven only after seeing you."
