tam—the muni; dmantrya—taking permission; puram—to his own
place; prayat—went away; samahitah—being very contemplative.
TRANSLATION
King Saryati, being very contemplative and thus understanding
Cyavana Muni’s purpose, gave his daughter in charity to the sage.
Thus released from danger with great difficulty, he took permis-
sion from Cyavana Muni and returned home.
PURPORT
The King, after hearing the statement of his daughter, certainly told
the great sage Cyavana Muni everything about how his daughter had ig-
norantly committed such an offense. The muni, however, inquired from
the King whether the daughter was married. In this way, the King,
understanding the purpose of the great sage Cyavana Muni (tad-
abhiprayam ajfidya), immediately gave the muni his daughter in charity
and escaped the danger of being cursed. Thus with the permission of the
great sage the King returned home.
