अध्याय ५६ — च्यवन–कुशिकसंवादः
Cyavana–Kuśika Dialogue on Lineage, Conflict, and Transmission
अथाब्रवीन्नूपो वाक््यं श्रमो नास्त्यावयोरिह । विश्रान्तौ च प्रभावात् ते ऊचतुस्तौ तु भार्गवम्
atha abravīn nūpaḥ vākyam—śramo nāsty āvayor iha | viśrāntau ca prabhāvāt te ūcatuḥ tau tu bhārgavam ||
قال بهيشما: ثم قال الملك نُوبا للبهارغفا (تشيافانا): «هنا لا نشعر نحن الاثنان بأيِّ إعياء. وبقوتك قد بلغنا راحةً وسكينةً تامتين.» فلما قالا ذلك، أجاب تشيافانا المبارك وقد امتلأ فرحًا من جديد بأن ما قاله من قبل لن يكون عبثًا، بل سيتحقق لا محالة.

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the moral and spiritual efficacy of tapas (ascetic power): a realized sage’s prabhāva can remove fatigue and grant genuine relief, and such power makes one’s word (satya-vākya) effective—what is spoken with spiritual authority is not empty but tends toward fulfillment.
King Nūpa and his companion address the Bhārgava sage Chyavana, reporting that they feel no tiredness and are fully refreshed due to his influence. In response, Chyavana rejoices and affirms that his earlier declaration will not be in vain and will certainly come to pass.
