Text 11.42

यथा,
स्थानाभिकामस् तपसि स्थितो'हं
  त्वां दृष्टवान् साधु-मुनीन्द्र-गुह्यम् ।
काचं विचिन्वन्न् इव दिव्य-रत्नं
  स्वामिन् कृतार्थो'स्मि वरं न याचे ॥

yathā,
sthānābhikāmas tapasi sthito'haṃ
  tvāṃ dṛṣṭavān sādhu-munīndra-guhyam |^[1]
kācaṃ vicinvann iva divya-ratnaṃ
  svāmin kṛtārtho'smi varaṃ na yāce ||

sthāna—a good social status; abhikāmaḥ—desiring; tapasi—in the practice of austerity; sthitaḥ—situated; aham—I; tvām—You; dṛṣṭavān—saw; sādhu-muni-indra—from the best sādhus and sages; guhyam—hidden; kācam—a piece of glass; vicinvan—I was searching for; api—although; divya-ratnam—a divine gem; svāmin—O master; kṛta-arthaḥ—successful; asmi—I; varam—a benediction; na yāce—I do not ask.

For example (Dhruva speaks):

I was practicing austerities to obtain a good standing and I saw You, who are hidden even from the best sādhus and sages. I was looking for a piece of glass and I found a divine gem. O Lord, I do not wish anything else. I have become successful. (Hari-bhakti-sudhodaya 7.28) (Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu 4.3.44)

Commentary:

Jayadeva’s example of praharṣaṇa is: dīpam uddyotayed yāvat tāvad abhyudito raviḥ, “He was just about to turn on the light when the sun rose” (Candrāloka 5.49).

This is another illustration of praharṣaṇa,

krīṇīhi bhoḥ phalānīti śrutvā satvaram acyutaḥ |
phalārthī dhānyam ādāya yayau sarva-phala-pradaḥ ||
phala-vikrayiṇī tasya cyuta-dhānya-kara-dvayam |
phalair apūrayad ratnaiḥ phala-bhāṇḍam apūri ca ||

““Hey people, buy fruits!” Hearing this, Acyuta, the bestower of all fruits, quickly took some grains and went there: He wanted fruits. The fruit seller, a woman, filled His hands, from which the grains had fallen, with fruits. Then her fruit basket became filled with jewels as well” (Bhāgavatam 10.11.10-11).
