इति श्रीब्रह्माण्डे महापुराणे वायुप्रोक्ते मध्यमभागे सगरोपाख्याने भार्गवचरिते पञ्चचत्वारिंशत्तमोध्यायः // ४५// वसिष्ठ उवाच सगच्छन्पथि शुश्राव मुनिभ्यस्त त्त्वमादितः / राजपुत्रव्यवसितं पित्रौः स्वर्गतिमेव च
iti śrībrahmāṇḍe mahāpurāṇe vāyuprokte madhyamabhāge sagaropākhyāne bhārgavacarite pañcacatvāriṃśattamodhyāyaḥ // 45// vasiṣṭha uvāca sagacchanpathi śuśrāva munibhyasta ttvamāditaḥ / rājaputravyavasitaṃ pitrauḥ svargatimeva ca
Thus, in the Śrī Brahmāṇḍa Mahāpurāṇa, in the middle section proclaimed by Vāyu, within the Sagara narrative in the Bhārgava account, the forty-fifth chapter concludes. Vasiṣṭha said: As he went along the road, he heard from the sages the whole truth from the beginning—the resolve of the prince and also the ascent of his parents to heaven.
