فلما قدم قال لأميرة فيداربها (رُكمِني): «لقد وصل أفضل الحكماء؛ إنه ابن أتري، الزاهد العظيم، وقد أحرقت التقشّفاتُ آثامه».
Kṛṣṇa (Bhagavān) addressing Rukmiṇī (Vaidarbhī)
Tirtha: Dvārakā (līlā-sthāna: Rukmiṇī-nivāsa)
Type: kshetra
Scene: Kṛṣṇa speaks to Rukmiṇī, gesturing respectfully as he names Durvāsā—Atri’s son—emphasizing the sage’s tapas-born radiance; Rukmiṇī listens attentively, poised to arrange hospitality.
True spiritual authority is marked by tapas; householders honor such sages, recognizing their purity and power.
Dvārakā’s sacred culture, where the Lord’s household reveres visiting sages connected with nearby tīrthas like Gomati and Cakratīrtha.
Implicit instruction to receive and honor the arriving ṛṣi with proper hospitality.
