Ulūpī’s Disclosure and the Saṃjīvana-Maṇi: Arjuna’s Restoration (उलूपी-प्रकटनं संजीवनमणि-स्थापनं च)
मम त्वनुग्रहार्थाय प्रविशस्व पुरं स्वकम् । भार्याभ्यां सह धर्मज्ञ मा भूत् ते5त्र विचारणा
mama tv anugrahārthāya praviśasva puraṃ svakam | bhāryābhyāṃ saha dharmajña mā bhūt te 'tra vicāraṇā ||
ಧರ್ಮಜ್ಞನೇ! ನನ್ನ ಮೇಲೆ ಅನುಗ್ರಹ ತೋರಲು ನಿಮ್ಮ ಸ್ವನಗರಕ್ಕೆ ಪ್ರವೇಶಿಸಿರಿ। ನಿಮ್ಮ ಇಬ್ಬರು ಪತ್ನಿಯರೊಂದಿಗೆ ಬನ್ನಿ; ಈ ವಿಷಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಯಾವುದೇ ಸಂಶಯವೂ, ದ್ವಿತೀಯ ಚಿಂತನೆಯೂ ಇರಬಾರದು।

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights dharmic hospitality and respectful persuasion: Arjuna requests a respected person to accept honor publicly—entering the city with both wives—without hesitation, framing the act as a gracious favor (anugraha) that strengthens social harmony and proper conduct.
Arjuna addresses a dharma-knowing figure and urges him to enter his own city accompanied by his two wives. Arjuna presents this as a personal favor and asks him not to doubt or overthink the propriety of the request.
