Nakula’s Declaration and the Uñchavṛtti Brāhmaṇa’s Superior Merit (Āśvamedhika Parva, Adhyāya 92)
प्रसादयामास च तमगस्त्य॑ त्रिदशेश्वर: । स्वयमभ्येत्य राजर्षे पुरस्कृत्य बृहस्पतिम्,राजर्षे! देवेश्वर इन्द्रने स्वयं आकर बृहस्पतिको आगे करके अगस्त्य ऋषिको मनाया
prasādayāmāsa ca tam agastyaṃ tridaśeśvaraḥ | svayam abhyetya rājarṣe puraskṛtya bṛhaspatim ||
毗舍波耶那说:天帝因陀罗亲自前往阿伽斯提仙人处,并将布里哈斯帕提(Bṛhaspati)奉为受敬的调停者置于前,意在安抚并挽回那位王仙的心。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Power should be guided by dharma: when conflict arises, one should approach with humility, honor wisdom (Bṛhaspati), and seek reconciliation rather than insist on status.
Indra, the king of the gods, goes in person to Agastya to pacify him, bringing Bṛhaspati forward as a respected counselor/intermediary to facilitate conciliation.
