## Adipurana
**12.** Even hundreds of offenses of sons, relatives, and friends are forgiven by great souls, for it is their adornment.
**13.** Let alone others, even those who commit offenses against their masters, their infamy lasts for eons, and their sin is the cause of many other evils.
**14.** From where has this offense come from us, who are devoid of wisdom? We are your relatives and servants, O Kumar, you should forgive this offense.
**15.** This infamy and sin will be pacified by your grace, for you are capable of both cursing and blessing, therefore, please purify us.
**16.** The darkness of the world is destroyed by the sun, which removes the darkness. You are the sun for us, therefore, remove the darkness from our hearts.
**17.** Just as a mother's milk is essential for a child's survival, so too is your favor essential for our survival. This opposition that has arisen for us due to the special manifestation of our past life's karmas is like a child's opposition to his mother's milk.
**18.** If the cloud that brings joy to the entire world happens to strike someone with lightning, it is not the cloud's fault, but the manifestation of the bad karma of the person who was struck.
**19.** Just as a horse, being difficult to climb, may throw someone off, so too has Jayakumar thrown you off. But he is your servant, so what reason is there to be upset?
**20.** Sulochana, what is this talk? Our everything is yours. If you had stopped it earlier, why was the Swayamvara held?
**21.** Accept this daughter of mine, Lakshmi-mati, whose other name is Akshamala. She is pure like a garland of glory, what do you need with a garland of stones?
