तत्सर्वं ब्रूहि तत्त्वेन विस्तरान्मुनिपुंगव । इति पृष्टो नैमिषीयैराह सूतः पुनश्च तान्
tatsarvaṃ brūhi tattvena vistarānmunipuṃgava | iti pṛṣṭo naimiṣīyairāha sūtaḥ punaśca tān
ഹേ മുനിശ്രേഷ്ഠാ! അതെല്ലാം സത്യമായി, വിശദമായി പറയുക. നൈമിഷാരണ്യത്തിലെ ഋഷികൾ ചോദിച്ചതിനാൽ സൂതൻ വീണ്ടും അവരോടു പറഞ്ഞു।
Sūta (narrative frame; prompted by the Ṛṣis)
Tirtha: Dhanuṣkoṭi (topic)
Type: kshetra
Listener: Naimiṣīya ṛṣis
Scene: The Naimiṣa sages urge a full, truthful account; Sūta prepares to speak again, seated near the sacrificial fire with attentive listeners around.
Truthful, detailed hearing of tīrtha-māhātmya is itself a dharmic practice that nurtures right understanding.
Dhanuṣkoṭi tīrtha indirectly, as the requested topic of the forthcoming narration.
Śravaṇa (devotional listening) and kathā (sacred narration) are implied as meritorious acts.
