Ādi-parva Adhyāya 3 — Janamejaya’s Rite, Dhaumya’s Parīkṣā, and Uttanka’s Kuṇḍala Quest (सर्पसत्रप्रस्तावना–गुरुपरीक्षा–उत्तङ्कोपाख्यान)
स॒ एवमुक्त उपाध्यायेनेष्टं देश जगाम । अथापर: शिष्यस्तस्यैवायोदस्य धौम्यस्योपमन्युर्नाम,उपाध्यायके इस प्रकार आशीर्वाद देनेपर आरुणि कृतकृत्य हो अपने अभीष्ट देशको चला गया। उन्हीं आयोदधौम्य उपाध्यायका उपमन्यु नामक दूसरा शिष्य था
sa evam ukta upādhyāyenaiṣṭaṃ deśaṃ jagāma | athāparaḥ śiṣyas tasyaivāyodasya dhaumyasyopamanyur nāma |
وهكذا، إذ خوطِب آروṇي وباركه معلّمه، وقد تمّت مهمّته، انطلق إلى الموضع الذي يشتهيه. ثمّ يتحوّل السرد إلى تلميذٍ آخر لذلك المربّي نفسه، أيوذا-دهاوميا: طالبٍ يُدعى أوبامانيو.

Educational Q&A
The verse underscores the guru–śiṣya ethic: after fulfilling the teacher’s command and receiving approval, the disciple departs without pride, and the text moves on to present another student’s test—implying that dharma is learned through disciplined service and conduct.
Āruṇi, having been blessed by his teacher, leaves for his chosen destination. The narration then introduces the next disciple of the same teacher Ayoda-Dhaumya—Upamanyu—setting up the subsequent episode about his training.
