गदायुद्ध-समारम्भः
Commencement of the Mace-Duel Proceedings
वैशम्पायन उवाच नारदस्य वच: श्रुत्वा तानभ्यर्च्य द्विजर्षभान् । सर्वान् विसर्जयामास ये तेनाभ्यागता: सह
vaiśampāyana uvāca nāradasya vacaḥ śrutvā tān abhyarcya dvijarṣabhān | sarvān visarjayāmāsa ye tenābhyāgatāḥ saha ||
वैशम्पायन बोले—नारद के वचन सुनकर उन्होंने उन वृषभ-तुल्य ब्राह्मणों का यथोचित सत्कार किया और जो-जो नारद के साथ वहाँ आए थे, उन सबको आदरपूर्वक विदा कर दिया।
वैशम्पायन उवाच
The verse highlights dharmic conduct: after receiving counsel from a revered sage, one should honor learned guests (especially Brahmins and ascetics) and then send them off respectfully, maintaining propriety and gratitude.
After Nārada speaks, the host (implied by context) pays due honor to Nārada and the accompanying eminent Brahmins, and then formally dismisses the entire group who had arrived with Nārada—marking a transition to the next narrative event.
