सगरस्य पुत्रलाभः
Sagara’s Boons, Progeny, and the Rise of the Sixty Thousand
ताभ्यां सह महाराज: पत्नीभ्यां तप्तवांस्तप:।हिमवन्तं समासाद्य भृगुप्रस्रवणे गिरौ।।।।
tābhyāṃ saha mahārājaḥ patnībhyāṃ taptavāṃs tapaḥ | himavantaṃ samāsādya bhṛguprasravaṇe girau ||
Cùng đi với hai hoàng hậu, Đại vương Sagara đến dãy Tuyết Sơn (Himavat) và trên đỉnh núi mang danh Bhṛguprasravaṇa, Ngài thực hành khổ hạnh nghiêm mật.
The king (Sagara) accompanied by his wives reached Himavat mountain and engaged himself in severe austerities on a peak called Bhriguprasravana.
Dharma is pursued through tapas (self-discipline): even a king submits himself to austerity to fulfill responsibilities like progeny and continuity of the lineage.
Sagara, with both wives, goes to the Himalaya region and undertakes penance at Bhṛguprasravaṇa to obtain divine favor.
Perseverance and self-control—royal power is shown as secondary to inner discipline.
