Kṛṣṇasya Dvārakā-praveśaḥ — Krishna’s Return to Dvārakā and the Raivataka Festival
श्रुत्वा च निश्चयं तस्य महर्षेरतितेजस: । सम्भ्रान्तनयना: सर्वे पूजां चक्रुर्यथाविधि,उस समय उन अत्यन्त तेजस्वी महर्षिका निश्चय सुनकर सबकी आँखें भयसे कातर हो गयीं तथा सबने उनका विधिवत् पूजन किया
śrutvā ca niścayaṃ tasya maharṣer atitejasaḥ | sambhrāntanayanāḥ sarve pūjāṃ cakrur yathāvidhi ||
听闻那位光辉炽盛的大圣者所立之决断，众人皆目光惊惶而又敬畏；并依正法仪轨，向他奉行供养礼敬。
