## The Aparadah Parva
The Lord Yamala will surely become a Siddhayanga, meaning his yoga will be perfected. He will surely accept us, those who have endured many hardships.
We will not suffer from the Lord or his son Bharat. They will be pleased and satisfy us with offerings, respect, and wealth.
Many munis, though troubled within, remained steadfast. Others, though trying to be courageous, were unable to maintain their composure.
Some, driven by pride, remained steadfast. Others, falling to the ground, remembered the Lord's feet.
The king, through various conversations and thoughts, became detached from the hardships of penance and focused on livelihood.
Some, unable to bear the sight, looked at the Lord's face. Others, ashamed, turned their faces away. Thus, they gradually began to fall from their path.
Some sought guidance from the Lord Vripbhadev, while others, without asking, circumambulated him and bowed, seeking ways to sustain themselves.
"Oh Lord, you are our only refuge, we have no other path," they cried, fleeing and seeking ways to protect their lives.
Many, trembling with fear, turned away from the Lord and abandoned their vows.
Some fell at the Lord's feet, pleading, "Oh Lord, protect us! Our bodies are emaciated from hunger, please forgive us." They then disappeared.
