युधिष्ठिरस्य अर्जुनप्रेषण-युक्तिवर्णनम् | Yudhiṣṭhira’s Rationale for Sending Arjuna and Request to Dhaumya
ततः कुब्जाम्रकं गच्छेत् तीर्थसेवी नराधिप । गोसहस्रमवाप्रोति स्वर्गलोक॑ च गच्छति,नरेन्द्र! तत्पश्चात् तीर्थसेवी मानव कुब्जाम्रक-तीर्थमें जाय। वहाँ उसे सहस्र गोदानका फल मिलता है और अन्तमें वह स्वर्गलोकको जाता है
tataḥ kubjāmrakaṁ gacchet tīrthasevī narādhipa | gosahasram avāpnoti svargalokaṁ ca gacchati, narendra ||
হে নৰাধিপ! তাৰ পিছত তীৰ্থসেৱী ব্যক্তি কুব্জাম্ৰক তীৰ্থলৈ যাওক। তাত সি সহস্ৰ গোদানৰ ফল লাভ কৰে আৰু শেষত স্বৰ্গলোক প্ৰাপ্ত হয়।

Educational Q&A
Faithful pilgrimage to sacred tīrthas is presented as a dharmic discipline that yields great merit—here equated with donating a thousand cows—and culminates in attainment of heaven.
The speaker instructs the king about the next tīrtha to visit—Kubjāmraka—and states the specific spiritual reward (go-dāna-equivalent merit and eventual svarga) associated with that pilgrimage.
