Baka Dālbhya at Avakīrṇa-tīrtha: Rāṣṭra-kṣaya and Release through Prasāda (Śalya-parva, Adhyāya 40)

एवमुकक्‍्त्वा महातेजा जगाम त्रिदिवं मुनि: | एवं सिद्धः स भगवानार्शिषेण: प्रतापवान्‌,ऐसा कहकर वे महातेजस्वी मुनि स्वर्गलोकको चले गये। इस प्रकार पूजनीय एवं प्रतापी आर्डिषिण ऋषि उस तीर्थमें सिद्धि प्राप्त कर चुके हैं

evam uktvā mahātejā jagāma tridivaṃ muniḥ | evaṃ siddhaḥ sa bhagavān ārṣiṣeṇaḥ pratāpavān ||

ഇങ്ങനെ പറഞ്ഞ് മഹാതേജസ്സുള്ള മുനി ത്രിദിവത്തിലേക്ക് (സ്വർഗ്ഗലോകത്തിലേക്ക്) പോയി. ഇപ്രകാരം പൂജനീയനും പ്രതാപവാനുമായ ഋഷി ആർ‍ഷിഷേണൻ ആ തീർത്ഥത്തിൽ സിദ്ധി പ്രാപിച്ചു.

Educational Q&A

The verse underscores that sanctity and right conduct culminate in siddhi: a revered sage, after delivering his message, departs to heaven, implying that truthful speech, tapas, and the power of a tīrtha together lead to spiritual fulfillment.

After speaking (in the preceding context), the radiant sage leaves for the heavenly realm. The narrator notes that the venerable Ṛṣi Ārṣiṣeṇa has thereby attained accomplishment at that sacred place.
