Tīrtha-Sevana and the Cursed Apsaras
Grāha-Encounter at Saubhadra Tīrtha
नारद उवाच ततः पितामहो दत्त्वा वरमेतत् तदा तयो: । निवर्त््य तपसस्तौ च ब्रह्मलोक॑ जगाम ह,नारदजी कहते हैं--युधिष्ठिर! उस समय उन दोनों दैत्योंको यह वरदान देकर और उन्हें तपस्यासे निवृत्त करके ब्रह्माजी ब्रह्मतोकको चले गये
nārada uvāca tataḥ pitāmaho dattvā varam etat tadā tayoḥ | nivartya tapasas tau ca brahmalokaṁ jagāma ha ||
นารทกล่าวว่า “ครั้นแล้ว ปิตามหะได้ประทานพรนั้นแก่ทั้งสอง และให้ทั้งสองยุติตบะ จากนั้นพระองค์เสด็จไปยังพรหมโลก”
नारद उवाच
Educational Q&A
Tapas (austerity) gains potency, but its fruits are regulated by higher cosmic authority; when a boon is granted, the ascetic effort is to be concluded and the narrative moves under the governance of dharmic order rather than mere power.
Brahmā (called Pitāmaha) grants a boon to two Daityas, instructs them to stop their austerities, and then returns to his realm, Brahmaloka, marking the completion of that boon-bestowing episode.
