Summary
AI
Long ago, this nectar of stories emerged from the ocean-like mouth of Hara as it was churned by the Mandara mountain of his love for Pārvatī, the daughter of the great mountain-king. Those who, having overcome all obstacles and attained prosperity, intensely savor this nectar, bear a divine status even on this earth through the grace of Bhava.
