तपसाड<<राध्य वरदं देवं गोपतिमी श्वरम् । लेभे संवरणो भार्या वसिष्ठस्यैव तेजसा,सबके अधीश्वर वरदायक देवशिरोमणि भगवान् सूर्यको तपस्याद्वारा प्रसन्न करके महाराज संवरणने वसिष्ठजीके ही तेजसे तपतीको पत्नीरूपमें प्राप्त किया
tapasā ārādhya varadaṁ devaṁ gopatīm īśvaram | lebhe saṁvaraṇo bhāryāṁ vasiṣṭhasyaiva tejasā ||
เมื่อทรงบำเพ็ญตบะจนเทพผู้ประทานพร ผู้เป็นเจ้าและผู้พิทักษ์โลกทรงพอพระทัยแล้ว พระราชาสังวรณะก็ได้ตปตีเป็นพระมเหสี ด้วยเดชตบะ (เตชัส) ของวสิษฐะนั่นเอง

Educational Q&A
Legitimate success—especially in matters shaping lineage and dharma—arises from tapas and proper propitiation, and is mediated by the moral-spiritual authority of a sage; Vasiṣṭha’s tejas functions as the enabling force for the rightful marriage.
Vasiṣṭha narrates that King Saṁvaraṇa, after worshipping the boon-giving Lord (here understood as Sūrya), receives Tapatī as his wife, and that this outcome is attributed to Vasiṣṭha’s spiritual power.
