काडुशक्षन्ते दर्शन तुभ्यं दिवं ब्रज द्विजर्षभ । द्विजश्रेष्ठ! ब्रह्मलोकमें विचरनेवाले जो ब्रह्मर्षिगण विमानोंमें रहते हैं, वे भी तुम्हारे दर्शनकी इच्छा रखते हैं; इसलिये तुम स्वर्गलोकमें चलो

El suegro dijo: «Oh toro entre los dos veces nacidos, ve al cielo. Oh el mejor de los brahmanes, incluso los Brahmarṣis que vagan por el mundo de Brahmā y habitan en carros celestiales anhelan contemplarte. Por eso, avanza hacia la morada celestial».

Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes the honor accorded to spiritual excellence: a truly eminent Brahmin is considered worthy of being sought even by Brahmarṣis. It frames ‘darśana’ as a sacred encounter and presents heavenly ascent as a consequence of recognized merit and virtue.
The speaker, identified as the father-in-law, urges the addressed Brahmin to go to heaven, stating that exalted seers dwelling in Brahmaloka and traveling in vimānas desire to see him; this functions as a formal invitation and affirmation of the person’s spiritual stature.
