पाण्डव-वृष्णि-समागमः तथा अश्वमेध-अनुज्ञा | Reunion at the Kuru Court and Authorization of the Aśvamedha
मन:प्रह्लादनश्वासीत् सर्वलोकस्य भारत । नरेश्वर! इस प्रकार नामकरण हो जानेके बाद तुम्हारे पिता परिक्षित् कालक्रमसे बड़े होने लगे। भारत! वे सब लोगोंके मनको आनन्दमग्न किये रहते थे
manaḥ-prahlādanaś cāsīt sarva-lokasya bhārata | nareśvara! evaṃ prakāre nāma-karaṇaṃ kṛte sati tava pitā parīkṣit kāla-krameṇa vṛddhiṃ jagāma | bhārata! sa sarveṣāṃ lokānāṃ manāṃsi ānandamagnāni cakāra |
Vaiśampāyana said: “O Bhārata, he became a source of delight to the hearts of all people. O king, after the naming ceremony had thus been performed, your father Parīkṣit, in the natural course of time, grew to maturity. O Bhārata, he continually kept the minds of all men filled with joy.”
