Adhyāya 90: Babhruvāhana’s Reception and the Commencement of Yudhiṣṭhira’s Aśvamedha
विरजो ब्रह्मसदनं गच्छ विप्र यथासुखम् | सर्वेषां वो द्विजश्रेष्ठ दिव्यं यानमुपस्थितम्
virajo brahmasadanaṁ gaccha vipra yathāsukham | sarveṣāṁ vo dvijaśreṣṭha divyaṁ yānam upasthitam ||
শ্বশুর বললেন—“হে বিপ্রশ্রেষ্ঠ, এখন তুমি সুখে রজঃকলুষহীন ব্রহ্মসদনে গমন কর। হে দ্বিজশ্রেষ্ঠ, তোমাদের সকলের জন্য এই দিব্য বিমান প্রস্তুত।”

A father-in-law addresses a group of brāhmaṇas, granting them leave and directing them to proceed comfortably to Brahmā’s abode, indicating that a divine vehicle has arrived to carry them.
