That highly energetic and powerful one (Dasharatha) thinking of the qualifications of Rama, was well-pleased and (thus) addressed his priest, "O Brahmana, this night the constellation Paushya being in the ascendant, will be a highly auspicious time. Let therefore my attendants collect materials (for the inauguration) and let Rama also be invited.”
चिन्तयंश्च महातेजा गुणान् रामस्य वीर्यवान्। अभ्यभाषत भद्रं ते प्रीयमाणः पुरोहितम्॥ अद्य पुष्यो निशि ब्रह्मन् पुण्यं योगमुपैष्यति। सम्भाराः सम्भियन्तां मे रामश्चोपनिमन्त्र्यताम्॥
