पूर्णमण्डलमालोक्य तावुत्थायोपतस्थतु: । दोनों एकाग्रचित्त होकर प्राचीन वृत्तान्तोंकी चर्चा कर ही रहे थे कि किरणजालसे मण्डित भगवान् भास्करका उदय हुआ। सूर्यदेवका सम्पूर्ण मण्डल देख उन दोनोंने खड़े होकर उनका उपस्थान किया

The scene underscores disciplined conduct: even amid serious discourse, one should uphold timely reverence and proper observance.
