Shloka 12
गालवस्य विषादः तथा विष्णुप्रयाणम्
Gālava’s Despair and Resolve to Seek Viṣṇu
भुक्त मे तिष्ठ तावत् त्वमित्युक्त्वा भगवान् ययौ । विश्वामित्रस्ततो राजन् स्थित एव महाद्युति:
bhukta me tiṣṭha tāvat tvam ity uktvā bhagavān yayau | viśvāmitras tato rājan sthita eva mahādyutiḥ ||
尊贵的法神（Dharma）说道：“我已用过食，你且暂留于此。”言毕便离开了那里。大王啊，随后光辉炽盛的仙人毗湿瓦密多仍旧站在原处，保持原状——默然承受，以忍与制自持。

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights dharma expressed as restraint and endurance: even when dismissed or left waiting, a disciplined person maintains composure and steadiness rather than reacting with anger or entitlement.
Dharma tells Viśvāmitra that he has already eaten and instructs him to stay for the moment; Dharma then leaves. Viśvāmitra, described as greatly radiant, remains standing there exactly as he was, continuing to bear the circumstance.
