युधिष्ठिरस्य अर्जुनप्रेषण-युक्तिवर्णनम् | Yudhiṣṭhira’s Rationale for Sending Arjuna and Request to Dhaumya
ततो गृध्रवर्ट गच्छेत् स्थानं देवस्थ धीमत: । स्नायीत भस्मना तत्र अभिगम्य वृषध्वजम्,तदनन्तर परम बुद्धिमान् महादेवजीके गृधप्रवट नामक स्थानकी यात्रा करे और वहाँ भगवान् शंकरके समीप जाकर भस्मसे स्नान करे (अपने शरीरमें भस्म लगाये)
tato gṛdhravraṭaṁ gacchet sthānaṁ devastha dhīmataḥ | snāyīt bhasmanā tatra abhigamya vṛṣadhvajam ||
それから、賢き神にゆかりある聖地「グリドゥラヴラタ」(Gṛdhravraṭa)へ赴くべきである。牡牛旗を掲げる御方ヴリシャドヴァジャ（Vṛṣadhvaja—シヴァ）のもとに至ったなら、そこで灰によって沐浴し—すなわち聖灰を身に塗し—恭しくマハーデーヴァに近づいて礼拝せよ。ここに説かれる巡礼は、浄化と謙抑、そして定められた作法によるシヴァへの直礼という、規律ある信愛である。
