इस प्रकार श्रीमहाभारत अनुशासनपववके अन्तर्गत दानधर्मपर्वमें च्यवन और कुशिकका संवादविषयक बावनवाँ अध्याय पूरा हुआ
snigdha-gambhīrayā vācā bhārgavaḥ suprasannayā | dadāni vāṃ varaśreṣṭhaṃ taṃ brūtām iti bhārata ||
そのときバールガヴァ・チャヴァナは、慈愛に和らげられ、満足に輝く深い声で言った。「おお、バーラタよ。汝ら二人に最上の恩寵を授けたい。告げよ――何を与えればよいか。」
भीष्म उवाच
The verse highlights the dharmic spirit of dāna: a worthy giver offers with affection and clarity, and the recipients are invited to state their need openly so the gift may be truly beneficial and appropriate.
After the exchange concerning Cyavana (in the Cyavana–Kuśika dialogue context), Cyavana—pleased—addresses the two recipients and invites them to name the best boon they desire, setting up the next development of the story.
