पुलस्त्य उवाच द्वाःस्थवाक्यं समाकर्ण्य समुत्थायाचलेश्वरः स्वयमभ्यागमद् द्वारि समादायार्घ्यमुत्तमम्
pulastya uvāca dvāḥsthavākyaṃ samākarṇya samutthāyācaleśvaraḥ svayamabhyāgamad dvāri samādāyārghyamuttamam
پلستیہ نے کہا—دربان کی بات سن کر اَچل ایشور اٹھ کھڑا ہوا اور بہترین اَर्घ्य (نذرانۂ استقبال) ہاتھ میں لے کر خود دروازے پر آیا۔

The ideal host does not delegate reverence: rising promptly and offering arghya in person models dharma as embodied action—honor to the worthy sustains both household and sacred order.
Dharma-instruction via narrative (ākhyāna) within a mahatmya frame; not a cosmological or dynastic segment, but a conduct exemplar supporting the puranic aim of dharma and tīrtha reverence.
Arghya signifies recognition of spiritual potency (tejas) in guests; meeting them at the door indicates that sanctity is welcomed outwardly—sacred space expands through honoring rishis.
