इत्युक्त्वा वचनं भूपं याज्ञवल्क्यः स वै द्विजः । जगाम स्वगृहं तूर्णं निस्पृहत्वं समाश्रितः
ityuktvā vacanaṃ bhūpaṃ yājñavalkyaḥ sa vai dvijaḥ | jagāma svagṛhaṃ tūrṇaṃ nispṛhatvaṃ samāśritaḥ
یوں بادشاہ سے یہ بات کہہ کر وہ برہمن یاج्ञولکیہ بےرغبتی اختیار کیے ہوئے تیزی سے اپنے گھر چلا گیا۔
Narrator (contextual narration within the Purāṇic dialogue)

Non-attachment safeguards dharma; a sage preserves the sanctity of ritual by refusing improper demands and remaining desireless.
No specific site is mentioned in this verse; it serves the moral arc within the tīrtha-mahātmya chapter.
None directly; it underscores the ethical boundary around ritual performance.
