Samparityajya (सम्परित्यज्य) refers to “abandoning (one’s husband)�, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.35 (“The story of Padmā and Pippalāda�).—Accordingly, as Dharma (in the guise of a king) said to Padmā (wife of sage Pippalāda): “[...] A beautiful woman acquires beauty as a result of the merit of a previous birth. The beauty becomes completely fruitful only after embracing a man of aesthetic taste. I am the lover of a thousand beautiful women. I am an expert in the erotic science and literature. Abandon (samparityajya) that husband and make me your slave. You can indulge in sexual dalliance in the beautiful secluded forests, mountains and banks of rivers in my company. Make your life fruitful�.
