The Five Vows Festival
Meanwhile, her dearest friend, Vasantatilaka, spoke to Anjana Sundari, saying, "Oh beautiful princess, you are most fortunate! Your father has given you to the mighty Pavananjay."
"The entire world is filled with his virtues, pure as the rays of the moon, and he disregards the fame of other men's qualities."
"It is a joyous occasion that you, adorned with the brilliance of great jewels, will sit in his lap, like the tide in the ocean, making a beautiful sound."
"Your connection with him will be like a stream of jewels flowing on the banks of a mountain of jewels. Indeed, the joy arising from a praiseworthy relationship is the greatest joy for women."
As her friend Vasantmala was describing Pavananjay's virtues, Anjana was happy in her heart and, out of shyness, lowered her head and scratched her toe with her finger.
Pavananjay, whose eyes were filled with blooming lotuses, was carried away by the current of joy, far, far away.
Then another friend, Mishrakeśī, spoke, her red lips drawn inwards, and the flower in her braid fell down as she shook her head.
"Oh, you have revealed your great ignorance by choosing Pavananjay over Vidutprabha!"
"I have heard many times in the royal palaces that this girl should be given to Vidutprabha, or not.
"Only he who knows the number of drops in the ocean can understand the depth of his pure qualities."
"He is young, gentle, humble, radiant, wise, brave, powerful, a master of knowledge, and the whole world desires to see him."
"If, by good fortune, Vidutprabha were to become this girl's husband, then she would receive the fruit of this birth."
"O Vasantamalika, the difference between Pavananjay and Vidutprabha is known in the world, just as the difference between a cow and an ocean is known."
