Offerings for Ancestors and Their Stated Results
ततस्त्रैलेक्यमृषयो व्यचिन्वन्त सुरै: सह । कांक्षन्तो दर्शन बल्लेः सर्वे तद्तमानसा:
tatast trailekyam ṛṣayo vyacinvanta suraiḥ saha | kāṅkṣanto darśanaṃ balleḥ sarve tad-tamānasāḥ ||
त्यानंतर देवतांसह ऋषींनी त्रैलोक्यात अग्नीचा शोध सुरू केला. सर्वांचे मन त्याच उद्देशात एकाग्र होते, कारण सर्वांनाच अग्निदेवाचे दर्शन घ्यायचे होते.

Educational Q&A
Single-minded intent (tad-tamānasāḥ) in a righteous quest is presented as a virtue: sages and gods act in concert, directing mind and effort toward a sacred goal—seeking divine presence (darśana) rather than worldly gain.
Bhishma describes how the sages, accompanied by the gods, begin a search across the three worlds, driven by the desire to obtain the vision of Agni.
