भूगुरुवाच राजा युधिष्ठिरो नाम भविष्यति कुलोद्वह: । सत्वां मोक्षयिता शापादित्युक्त्वान्तरधीयत
bhṛgur uvāca rājā yudhiṣṭhiro nāma bhaviṣyati kulodvahaḥ | sa tvāṃ mokṣayitā śāpād ity uktvāntaradhīyata ||
ಭೃಗು ಹೇಳಿದರು—ರಾಜನೇ! ನಿನ್ನ ವಂಶದಲ್ಲಿ ಯುಧಿಷ್ಠಿರನೆಂಬ ರಾಜನು ಉದ್ಭವಿಸುವನು; ಕುಲೋದ್ವಹನಾದ ಅವನು ನಿನ್ನನ್ನು ಈ ಶಾಪದಿಂದ ವಿಮೋಚಿಸುವನು. ಹೀಗೆ ಹೇಳಿ ಭೃಗು ಅಂತರಧಾನರಾದರು.
भीष्म उवाच
The verse presents dharmic reassurance: even a binding curse can be undone through the advent of a righteous agent. It highlights faith in moral order—virtue and rightful kingship become instruments of release and restoration.
Bhṛgu foretells that a future king, Yudhiṣṭhira—described as the foremost upholder of the lineage—will free the addressed person from a curse. After delivering this prophecy, Bhṛgu disappears.
