नहुषोपाख्यानम्—दीपदान-धूप-बलीकर्म-प्रशंसा
Nahūṣa Episode and the Commendation of Lamp-Gifting and Household Offerings
भूगुरुवाच राजा युधिष्ठिरो नाम भविष्यति कुलोद्वह: । सत्वां मोक्षयिता शापादित्युक्त्वान्तरधीयत
bhṛgur uvāca rājā yudhiṣṭhiro nāma bhaviṣyati kulodvahaḥ | sa tvāṃ mokṣayitā śāpād ity uktvāntaradhīyata ||
婆利古(Bhṛgu)说道:“将有一位名为坚战(Yudhiṣṭhira)的国王兴起,成为你族系最卓越的承载者;他将使你脱离此诅咒。”言毕,婆利古便从众人视线中隐没不见。
भीष्म उवाच
The verse presents dharmic reassurance: even a binding curse can be undone through the advent of a righteous agent. It highlights faith in moral order—virtue and rightful kingship become instruments of release and restoration.
Bhṛgu foretells that a future king, Yudhiṣṭhira—described as the foremost upholder of the lineage—will free the addressed person from a curse. After delivering this prophecy, Bhṛgu disappears.
