एवं ह्यवितथं विद्धि मोक्षस्ते भविता पितुः । तच्छ्रुत्वा वचनं राजा नारदस्य महात्मनः । सचिवे भारमाधाय स्वराजस्य जगाम ह
evaṃ hyavitathaṃ viddhi mokṣaste bhavitā pituḥ | tacchrutvā vacanaṃ rājā nāradasya mahātmanaḥ | sacive bhāramādhāya svarājasya jagāma ha
આ નિશ્ચિત જાણ—તારા પિતાને અવશ્ય મોક્ષ પ્રાપ્ત થશે. મહાત્મા નારદના વચન સાંભળી રાજાએ રાજ્યનો ભાર મંત્રીને સોંપ્યો અને પોતે પ્રસ્થાન કર્યો.
Nārada (first sentence), then Narrator (contextual)
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra (implied)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Śaunaka and other ṛṣis (typical Naimiṣāraṇya audience; not stated in the verse)
Scene: Nārada, radiant and ascetic, assures a concerned king of the father’s impending liberation; the king then ceremonially entrusts the royal insignia to a minister and departs with minimal retinue.
Dharma pursued with faith and guidance bears certain fruit; even royal duties can be arranged to prioritize higher spiritual obligations.
The verse confirms the efficacy of tīrtha practice in general within the Prabhāsakṣetra Māhātmya narrative.
Proceed with the pilgrimage plan; practically, the king also performs rajadharma by delegating governance responsibly.
