Lomaśa’s Arrival and Report on Arjuna’s Divine Astras (लोमशागमनम्—अर्जुनदिव्यास्त्रलाभवृत्तान्तः)
निकेत: श्रूयते पुण्यो यत्र विश्रवसो मुने: । जज्ञे धनपतिर्यत्र कुबेरो नरवाहन:,वहीं मुनिवर विश्रवाका पवित्र आश्रम सुना जाता है, जहाँ नरवाहन धनाध्यक्ष कुबेरका जन्म हुआ था
niketaḥ śrūyate puṇyo yatra viśravaso muneḥ | jajñe dhanapatir yatra kuberaḥ naravāhanaḥ ||
ধৌম্য ক’লে—য’ত মুনিবৰ বিশ্ৰৱাৰ পবিত্ৰ আশ্ৰম প্ৰসিদ্ধ, তাতেই ‘নৰবাহন’ ধনাধ্যক্ষ কুবেৰ জন্মিছিল।
