Āraṇyaka-parva Adhyāya 277 — Sāvitrī-Upākhyāna: Aśvapati’s Vows and Sāvitrī’s Birth; Search for a Suitable Husband Begins
एवं विधाय तत् सर्व भगवॉल्लोकभावन: । मन्थरां बोधयामास यदू यत् कार्य यथा यथा,इस प्रकार सारी व्यवस्था करके लोक स्रष्टा भगवान् ब्रह्माने मन्थरा बनी हुई दुन्दुभीको जो-जो काम जैसे-जैसे करना था, वह सब समझा दिया
evaṁ vidhāya tat sarvaṁ bhagavāṁl lokabhāvanaḥ | mantharāṁ bodhayāmāsa yadū yat kāryaṁ yathā yathā ||
かくして万事を整え終えると、世を生み保つ吉祥なる主ブラフマーは、マンタラーの姿を取ったドゥンドゥビーに教えを授け、なすべき事とその手順を、段を追って詳らかに説き示した。

The verse highlights ordered action under higher guidance: when a task affects the world’s course, it should be set in proper sequence (yathā yathā) and carried out with clear understanding, reflecting alignment with cosmic order (lokabhāvana).
Mārkaṇḍeya narrates that Brahmā, after completing the necessary arrangements, instructs Dundubhī—who has taken the form of Mantharā—about the specific actions she must perform and the exact manner in which to perform them.
