Shloka 58
युधिष्ठिरस्य अर्जुनप्रेषण-युक्तिवर्णनम् | Yudhiṣṭhira’s Rationale for Sending Arjuna and Request to Dhaumya
ततो वै ब्राह्मणीं गत्वा ब्रह्मचारी जितेन्द्रिय: । पद्मवर्णेन यानेन ब्रह्मुलोकं प्रपद्यते
tato vai brāhmaṇīṁ gatvā brahmacārī jitendriyaḥ | padmavarṇena yānena brahmalokaṁ prapadyate ||
তারপর ব্রাহ্মণী তীর্থে গিয়ে, ইন্দ্রিয়জয়ী ব্রহ্মচারী পদ্মবর্ণ বিমানে আরূঢ় হয়ে ব্রহ্মলোকে গমন করে।

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that inner discipline—especially sense-control (jitendriya) and the observance of brahmacarya—when coupled with reverent pilgrimage to a sacred tīrtha, yields exalted spiritual fruit, symbolized by ascent to Brahmaloka.
The speaker is describing the phala (spiritual result) of visiting the Brāhmaṇī tīrtha with strict self-restraint: the pilgrim, as a brahmacārī who has mastered the senses, is said to reach Brahmaloka in a lotus-colored celestial conveyance.
