The verse frames dharma as something approached through humble inquiry in a sanctified setting: going to a place of tapas and learning (Badarī) and meeting realized sages, implying that ethical clarity is sought through disciplined environments and competent teachers.
Janamejaya begins a question by describing a journey to Badaryāśrama and a meeting with “those two sages.” The line functions as a narrative lead-in, preparing for details about who the sages are and what instruction or event followed their encounter.
