A spiritual discourse narrating the story of Pārvatī's resolve to perform tapasyā (austerity) and explaining its power. "Tapasya is the giver of happiness and the remover of all troubles." "Through the power of tapasyā, Brahmā is able to create this world. Through the power of that tapasyā... Viṣṇu is able to protect the world. And through that power of tapasyā, Śiva, is able to destroy all the negative powers." The speaker recounts how Pārvatī, consoling her mother Mēnā, describes a dream in which a Brāhmaṇa instructs her to undertake severe spiritual austerity, affirming the truth of sage Nārada's words. The narrative details the immense power of tapasyā, using the examples of the Hindu trinity and Śeṣanāga, and describes Pārvatī's subsequent journey into the forest for a prolonged, extreme penance to attain Lord Śiva. The discourse frequently shifts to address a modern audience directly, exhorting them to cultivate similar willpower in their own sādhanā (practice) to overcome mental obstacles and attachments.
