Nāga-āyatana-darśana-pratīkṣā — The Brāhmaṇa’s Request and Waiting on the Gomatī
बदर्याश्रममागम्य समागम्य च तावृषी
badaryāśramam āgamya samāgamya ca tāv ṛṣī
阇那美阇耶说道：“来到跋陀梨（Badarī）仙苑，并与那两位圣仙相会……”——于是他开始追问他们在那神圣隐修处相逢的缘由；此地素来与持戒修行、求学研习与追求法（dharma）相联系。

Educational Q&A
The verse frames dharma as something approached through humble inquiry in a sanctified setting: going to a place of tapas and learning (Badarī) and meeting realized sages, implying that ethical clarity is sought through disciplined environments and competent teachers.
Janamejaya begins a question by describing a journey to Badaryāśrama and a meeting with “those two sages.” The line functions as a narrative lead-in, preparing for details about who the sages are and what instruction or event followed their encounter.
