हरिणश्चाथ वज्रश्च न्यंकुः कपिल एव च । तपस्तप्यंति तत्रस्थाः स्वाध्यायासक्तमानसाः
hariṇaścātha vajraśca nyaṃkuḥ kapila eva ca | tapastapyaṃti tatrasthāḥ svādhyāyāsaktamānasāḥ
هَرِيṇa وفَجْرَ ونيانكو وكَبِيلَا—إذ أقاموا هناك—أدّوا التَّقشّف (تَبَس)، وقلوبهم متعلّقة بالسفادهيايا (دراسة الفيدا وتلاوتها).
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) (deduced for Prabhāsa Khaṇḍa narration)
The ideal use of a tīrtha is disciplined practice—tapas and svādhyāya—through which the place’s sanctity becomes lived dharma.
Prabhāsa Kṣetra as a seat for austerity and Vedic recitation.
Svādhyāya (scriptural recitation/study) and tapas (austerity) are highlighted as the sages’ core observances.
