वंशस्ते पार्थिवश्रेष्ठ भूगूणामेव तेजसा । पौत्रस्ते भविता विप्रस्तपस्वी पावकद्युति:
vaṁśas te pārthivaśreṣṭha bhṛgūṇām eva tejasā | pautras te bhavitā vipras tapasvī pāvakadyutiḥ ||
赤瓦那说道：“噢，诸王之最！凭借婆利古（Bhṛgu）族系自身的光辉，你的家族将获得婆罗门之位。你的孙子将成为婆罗门苦行者，光耀如火。”

Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes that true spiritual authority (vipratva/Brahminhood) is validated by tapas and sacred potency (tejas), and that lineage becomes ethically and spiritually elevated when it is aligned with ascetic discipline and dharma.
Cyavana addresses a king and foretells that, through connection with the Bhṛgu lineage, the king’s descendants will attain Brahmin status; specifically, the king’s grandson is prophesied to be an ascetic Brahmin, radiant like fire.
