agastya uvāca /
athāvighnakaraṃ rājan kathayāmi śrṛṇuṣva me /
yena samyak kṛtenāpi na vighnamupajāyate

caturthyāṃ phālgune māsi grahītavyaṃ vrataṃ tvidam /
naktāhāreṇa rājendra tilānnaṃ pāraṇaṃ smṛtam /
tadevāgnau tu hotavyaṃ brāhmaṇāya ca tad bhavet

cāturmāsyaṃ vrataṃ caitat kṛtvā vai pañca me tathā /
sauvarṇaṃ gajavaktraṃ tu kṛtvā viprāya dāpayet

pāyasaiḥ pañcabhiḥ pātrairupetaṃ tu tilaistathā /
evaṃ kṛtvā vrataṃ caitat sarvavighnairvimucyate

hayamedhasya vighne tu saṃjāte sagaraḥ purā /
etadeva caritvā tu hayamedhaṃ samāptavān

tathā rudreṇa devena tripuraṃ nighnatā purā /
etadeva kṛtaṃ tasmāt tripuraṃ tena pātitam /
mayā samudraṃ pibatā etadeva kṛtaṃ vratam
