राजसूयविचारः — Deliberation on the Rajasuya and the Summoning of Kṛṣṇa
विज्ञाय मानुषं लोकमायान्तं मां नराधिप । प्रोवाच प्रणतो भूत्वा वदेथास्त्वं युधिषछ्तिरम्,नरेश्वर! मुझे मनुष्यलोकमें आता जान उन्होंने प्रणाम करके मुझसे कहा--*देवर्षे ! आप युधिष्ठिरसे यह कहियेगा--
vijñāya mānuṣaṁ lokam āyāntaṁ māṁ narādhipa | provāca praṇato bhūtvā vadethās tvaṁ yudhiṣṭhiram ||
ହେ ନରାଧିପ! ମୁଁ ମାନବଲୋକକୁ ଆସୁଛି ବୋଲି ଜାଣି ସେ ପ୍ରଣାମ କରି ମୋତେ କହିଲେ—“ଦେବର୍ଷେ! ଯୁଧିଷ୍ଠିରଙ୍କୁ ଏହା କହିଦିଅ।”

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights dharmic conduct in communication: one should approach the wise with humility, and important counsel meant for a righteous ruler should be conveyed faithfully through a respected messenger (here, Nārada).
Nārada reports that when someone realized he was arriving in the human realm, that person bowed respectfully and requested Nārada to deliver a message to Yudhiṣṭhira.
