विमुक्तश्च कथं भूयो भ्रूणगर्तामुपाश्रितः । सापि गर्ता कथं जाता सर्वं नो वद विस्तरात्
vimuktaśca kathaṃ bhūyo bhrūṇagartāmupāśritaḥ | sāpi gartā kathaṃ jātā sarvaṃ no vada vistarāt
Sau khi đã được giải thoát, vì sao ông lại nương náu nơi ‘Bhrūṇa-gartā’ (hố gắn với tội sát hại thai nhi) một lần nữa? Và hố ấy đã hình thành như thế nào? Xin hãy kể cho chúng tôi mọi điều thật tường tận.
Ṛṣis (Sages)
Tirtha: Bhrūṇa-gartā
Type: kund
Listener: Sūta
Scene: Sages press Sūta to narrate in full: how Saudāsa, even after release, again sought the Bhrūṇa-gartā, and how the pit itself originated—setting the stage for a dramatic origin legend.
Purāṇic tīrthas are tied to moral history: understanding the origin-story deepens repentance and faith in purification.
Bhrūṇagartā is explicitly named as a significant location whose origin and power are about to be narrated.
None directly; the request for “detail” signals an upcoming māhātmya account that typically supports snāna, dāna, and prayāścitta.
