अथ तद्विद्रुतं सैन्यं दृष्ट्वाः पुरंदरः । आश्वासयन्नुवाचेदं बलवद्दानवार्दितम्
atha tadvidrutaṃ sainyaṃ dṛṣṭvāḥ puraṃdaraḥ | āśvāsayannuvācedaṃ balavaddānavārditam

In dharmic struggle, courage is rekindled through right counsel; leadership includes restoring faith when forces are shaken.
No tīrtha is mentioned.
None.
