पुत्रस्नेहातुरौ तौ वै शिवौ पर्वणि पर्वणि ॥ दर्शनार्थं कुमारस्य तस्य नारद गच्छतः ॥ ३६ ॥

O Nārada, on the full and new moon days, Pārvatī and Śiva are excited by love towards their son and they go there to see him.

अमावास्यादिने शंभुः स्वयं गच्छति तत्र ह ॥ पूर्णमासी दिने तत्र पार्वती गच्छति ध्रुवम् ॥३७॥

On new moon days, Śiva himself goes there. On full moon days, Pārvatī goes there certainly.

O great sage, whatever you had asked in regard to Kārttikeya and Gaṇeśa has been narrated by me.

एतच्छ्रुत्वा नरो धीमान् सर्वपापैः प्रमुच्यते ॥ शोभनां लभते कामानीप्सितान्सकलान्सदा ॥ ३९ ॥

On hearing this, an intelligent man becomes free from all sins. He achieves all desired fruits of auspicious nature.
