Atithi-prāpti and the Brāhmaṇa’s Deliberation on Triadic Dharma (अतिथिप्राप्तिः धर्मत्रयविचारश्च)
लग्नगर्भा विमुच्येत गर्भिणी जनयेत् सुतम् । वन्ध्या प्रसवमाप्रोति पुत्रपौत्रसमृद्धिमत्
lagnagarbhā vimucyeta garbhiṇī janayet sutam | vandhyā prasavam āpnoti putrapautrasamṛddhimat ||
ヴァイシャンパーヤナは言った。「これを聴聞することにより、胎が滞り苦しむ女はその難から解き放たれ、身重の女は時至って男児を産む。さらに不妊の女でさえ出産を得て、富み栄え、子と孫に恵まれる。」

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches the auspicious, remedial power attributed to hearing a sacred discourse: it is said to remove obstacles and confer well-being, including safe childbirth and the flourishing of lineage and prosperity.
Vaiśampāyana concludes a section by stating the promised fruits (phalaśruti) of listening to the preceding teaching—describing relief from pregnancy complications, successful delivery, and the attainment of offspring and prosperity.
