Shloka 104
उत्थाय सत्यवांश्षापि प्रमृज्याड्भरानि पाणिना । सर्वा दिश: समालोक्य कठिने दृष्टिमादथे,सत्यवानने भी उठकर एक हाथसे अपने सभी अंग पोंछे और चारों ओर देखकर फलोंकी टोकरीपर दृष्टि डाली
utthāya satyavān api pramṛjya aṅgāni pāṇinā | sarvā diśaḥ samālokya phalānāṃ bhāṇḍe dṛṣṭim ādade ||
สัตยวานก็ลุกขึ้นเช่นกัน เขาใช้มือเช็ดถูอวัยวะของตน มองไปทั่วทุกทิศ แล้วจึงเพ่งสายตาไปยังตะกร้าผลไม้
मार्कण्डेय उवाच

The verse highlights steadiness and practical awareness: even after strain or distress, one regains composure, attends to the body, surveys the situation, and focuses on the next necessary task—an ethical model of self-control and readiness.
In Markandeya’s narration of the Savitri–Satyavan episode, Satyavan rises, wipes himself, looks in all directions, and then looks toward the fruit basket—indicating a return to ordinary action and attention to their immediate needs in the forest setting.
