Kṛṣṇa–Arjuna Saṃvāda in Indraprastha: Consolation, Legitimation, and Leave for Dvārakā (आश्वमेधिकपर्व, अध्याय १५)
तीर्थेषु चैव पुण्येषु पल्वलेषु नदीषु च । चड्क्रम्यमाणौ संहृष्टावश्विनाविव नन्दने
tīrtheṣu caiva puṇyeṣu palvaleṣu nadīṣu ca | caṅkramyamāṇau saṁhṛṣṭāv aśvināv iva nandane ||
毗湿摩波耶那说道：二人徘徊游历，遍访清净圣渡（tīrtha）、诸般灵地、小潭与河岸；他们心中生起宁静的欢悦，宛如阿湿毗尼双子在难陀那园中嬉游一般。
