Shloka 106
Dhaumya’s Enumeration of Eastern Tīrthas
Prācī-diś Tīrtha-kathana
ऋषिभिदर्देवकल्पैश्न स्नातानि सुकृतैषिभि: । एवं त्वमपि कौरव्य विधिनानेन सुव्रत
ṛṣibhir devakalpaiś ca snātāni sukṛtaiḥ ṛṣibhiḥ | evaṁ tvam api kauravya vidhinānena suvrata ||
Pulastya sprach: „Von tugendhaften Weisen—Männern, die den Göttern gleich erhaben sind—wurden diese heiligen Übungen ordnungsgemäß vollzogen, und so erlangten sie Reinheit. Ebenso sollst auch du, o Kauravya, der du fest in deinen Gelübden stehst, dies nach der vorgeschriebenen Regel ausführen.“
पुलस्त्य उवाच
Educational Q&A
That sacred practices and purificatory observances should be performed exactly according to prescribed injunction (vidhi), following the example of virtuous, godlike sages; disciplined vow-keeping is presented as the ethical foundation for spiritual efficacy.
Pulastya is instructing a Kuru-descended listener, pointing to the precedent of eminent sages who have successfully completed these purifying rites, and urging the listener to undertake the same observance properly and faithfully.
