युधिष्ठिरस्य अर्जुनप्रेषण-युक्तिवर्णनम् | Yudhiṣṭhira’s Rationale for Sending Arjuna and Request to Dhaumya
तेन तीर्थ कृतं पुण्यं स्वेन नाम्ना च विश्रुतम् । तत्र स्नात्वा नरो राजन् धर्मशील: समाहितः
tena tīrthaṃ kṛtaṃ puṇyaṃ svena nāmnā ca viśrutam | tatra snātvā naro rājan dharmaśīlaḥ samāhitaḥ ||
তেওঁৰ দ্বাৰা এটা পুণ্য তীৰ্থ স্থাপিত হৈছিল, যি তেওঁৰ নিজ নামেই প্ৰসিদ্ধ। হে ৰাজন! যি মানুহে তাত স্নান কৰে, সি ধৰ্মশীল আৰু সমাহিতচিত্ত হয়।

Educational Q&A
The verse links outer ritual (bathing at a tīrtha) with inner ethics: true benefit is framed as becoming dharma-minded and mentally composed, not merely performing an act.
The speaker describes a particular holy place founded by a revered figure and famous by his name, then states the spiritual-ethical effect for a person who bathes there—especially one devoted to dharma and mental steadiness.
