युधिष्ठिरस्य अर्जुनप्रेषण-युक्तिवर्णनम् | Yudhiṣṭhira’s Rationale for Sending Arjuna and Request to Dhaumya
तत्र मासं वसेद् धीरो नैमिषे तीर्थतत्पर: । पृथिव्यां यानि तीर्थानि तानि तीर्थानि नैमिषे
tatra māsaṁ vased dhīro naimiṣe tīrthatatparaḥ | pṛthivyāṁ yāni tīrthāni tāni tīrthāni naimiṣe ||
Karena itu, seorang yang teguh dan arif, yang berbakti pada laku tirtha dan tapa suci, hendaknya tinggal di Naimiṣa selama sebulan penuh. Sebab segala tirtha suci yang ada di muka bumi dipandang hadir di Naimiṣa.
घुलस्त्य उवाच
Educational Q&A
Single-pointed devotion and disciplined residence at a supremely sacred place can concentrate the spiritual benefit of many pilgrimages; steadiness (dhīratā) and sincere tīrtha-oriented practice are emphasized over mere travel.
The speaker recommends that a wise pilgrim stay for one month at Naimiṣa, praising it as a uniquely comprehensive tīrtha where the sanctity of all earthly pilgrimage sites is believed to be present.
