Vyāhṛta (व्याहृत) refers to “saying”, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.3.54 (“Description of the duties of the chaste wife”).—Accordingly, as a Brahmin lady said to Pārvatī: “[...] When called by him she shall leave the work she is engaged in and approach him immediately. With palms joined in reverence and love she shall bow to him and say as follows. ‘O lord, be pleased to say (vyāhṛta) what I have been called for’. Whenever ordered by him to do any job she shall do it gladly. [...]”.
