Citram Vibhō ! Kathamavānmukhavṛntamēva Vişvak Patatyavirala Surapuspvrstih || Tvadgōcarē Sumanasām Yadi Va Munisa I Gacchanti Nūnamadha Aēva Hi Bandhanāni || 20 ||
O Lord! How is it that the flowers showered at the time of your speech (Sermon) fall down with their stems (bonds) at the bottom? This is surprising but not quite. Because the bonds of the Karmas of the sages (as well as of the gods and the flowers) whose minds are excellent, O excellent sage, always go down when they have a glimpse of you. This is what the shower of flowers suggests. Just as the bonds of the flowers go down on seeing the supreme Soul, so also the bonds of the karmas of the great men go down. ||20||
