Aṣṭāvakra and the Woman: Disclosure, Permission, and Marital Resolution (अनुशासन पर्व, अध्याय २२)
शनैश्वोत्सादितस्तत्र स्स्नानशालामुपागमत् | भद्रासनं तततश्रित्रमृषिरन्वगमन्नवम्,फिर उसके उठानेपर वे धीरेसे वहाँ स्नानगृहमें गये। वहाँ ऋषिको एक विचित्र एवं नूतन चौकी प्राप्त हुई
śanaiśvotsāditaḥ tatra snānaśālām upāgamat | bhadrāsanaṃ tatra citram ṛṣir anvagamannavam ||
毗湿摩说道:当他被轻柔扶起时,便缓步前往浴室。其间,那位仙者得一佳座——形制奇特而崭新——专为他备下,正合恭敬款待之礼。
भीष्म उवाच
The verse highlights dhārmic hospitality and proper conduct: elders or guests are to be assisted gently and honored with suitable arrangements (like a proper seat), reflecting respect, service, and decorum.
A person is carefully lifted and taken slowly to the bathing-house; there, a sage is received with a fine, newly prepared and distinctive seat, indicating attentive care and formal welcome.
