युधिष्ठिरस्य राज्याभिषेकः | Yudhiṣṭhira’s Royal Consecration
राजा युधिष्ठिरको बीचमें करके महामनस्वी भीमसेन और अर्जुन दो मणिमय मनोहर पीठोंपर विराजमान हुए ।। दान्ते सिंहासने शुभ्रे जाम्बूनदवि भूषिते । पृथापि सहदेवेन सहास्ते नकुलेन च,एक ओर हाथी दाँतके बने हुए स्वर्णविभूषित शुभ्र सिंहासनपर नकुल और सहदेवके साथ माता कुन्ती भी बैठ गयीं
rājā yudhiṣṭhirako bīcameṃ karake mahāmanasvī bhīmasena aura arjuna do maṇimaya manohara pīṭhoṃpara virājamāna hue || dānte siṃhāsane śubhre jāmbūnadavibhūṣite | pṛthāpi sahadevena sahāste nakulena ca |
毗湿摩波耶那说：将国王由提施提罗安置于中央，伟大心性的毗摩塞那与阿周那登上两座华美、嵌饰宝石的宝座而坐。另一侧，在一座明净的象牙宝座上，饰以阎浮那陀金，普利塔（昆蒂）亦与那俱罗、萨诃提婆同坐。

The verse highlights dharmic order expressed through seating and protocol: the rightful king is centered, brothers support him, and the revered mother is honored with a distinguished seat—symbolizing harmony, legitimacy, and respect after the turmoil of war.
A formal assembly is being arranged: Yudhiṣṭhira is placed centrally, Bhīma and Arjuna sit on gem-studded seats, and Kuntī sits to one side on an ivory, gold-adorned throne with Nakula and Sahadeva.
