Yayāti’s Ascent to Heaven
and Entry into Vaikuṇṭha
इति श्रीपद्मपुराणे भूमिखंडे वेनोपाख्याने पितृतीर्थवर्णने ययातिचरित्रे ययातेः स्वर्गारोहणं नाम त्र्यशीतितमोऽध्यायः
iti śrīpadmapurāṇe bhūmikhaṃḍe venopākhyāne pitṛtīrthavarṇane yayāticaritre yayāteḥ svargārohaṇaṃ nāma tryaśītitamo'dhyāyaḥ
Như vậy, trong Śrī Padma Purāṇa, phần Bhūmi-khaṇḍa—thuộc truyện Vena, phần mô tả Pitṛ-tīrtha và ký sự về vua Yayāti—chương thứ tám mươi ba, mang tên “Yayāti thăng thiên,” được kết thúc.
Narratorial colophon (textual closing formula; no direct speaker in the verse itself)
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: adbhuta
Type: tirtha
Sandhi Resolution Notes: त्र्यशीतितमोऽध्यायः = त्र्यशीतितमः + अध्यायः (अः + अ → ओऽ). कोपाच्च = कोपात् + च (त् + च → च्च).
It is a colophon: a formal closing line that identifies the Purāṇa section (Bhūmi-khaṇḍa), the embedded narrative contexts (Vena episode, Pitṛ-tīrtha description, Yayāti story), and the chapter title/number.
It signals that the surrounding material includes a description of a sacred place connected with the Pitṛs (ancestors), typically emphasizing rites, merit, and the sanctity of pilgrimage associated with ancestral obligations.
While the colophon itself does not teach directly, the title frames the episode as oriented toward the results of dharma and karmic merit—how righteous conduct, vows, and ritual or moral actions culminate in exalted destinations such as Svarga.
