Sabhā-praveśa, Dāna, and the Courtly Convergence (सभा-प्रवेशः दानं च)
रौक्मिणेयश्व साम्बश्न युयुधानश्व सात्यकि: । सुधर्मा चानिरुद्धश्न शैब्यश्न नरपुड्व:,रुक्मिणीनन्दन प्रद्युम्न, जाम्बवतीकुमार साम्ब, सत्यकपुत्र (सात्यकि) युयुधान, सुधर्मा, अनिरुद्ध, नरश्रेष्ठ शैब्य--ये और दूसरे भी बहुत-से राजा उस सभामें बैठते थे। पृथ्वीपते! अर्जुनके सखा तुम्बुरु गन्धर्व भी उस सभामें नित्य विराजमान होते थे

毗湿摩波耶那说道:鲁克弥尼之子罗迦弥涅耶(普拉丢姆那)、桑婆、尤尤陀那(萨底耆)、苏达摩、阿尼卢陀与舍伊毗耶——人中翘楚——以及许多别的国王,常在那王家议会中就座。阿周那之友、乾闼婆图姆布鲁也恒常在场,使朝廷更添文雅辉煌与正法王道之气象。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
The verse highlights the ideal of a righteous royal assembly: eminent warriors and kings gather in an ordered court, and even refined arts (symbolized by Tumburu the Gandharva) have a place—suggesting that power, lineage, and culture should harmonize under dharmic kingship.
Vaiśampāyana is listing distinguished figures who regularly sat in the celebrated assembly hall—naming prominent Yādava heroes (Pradyumna, Sāmba, Sātyaki, Aniruddha) and other notable kings like Śaibya, and noting that Tumburu the Gandharva, associated with Arjuna, was also a constant presence.
