अस्मिन्नृषभकूटे5 भूदूषभो नाम तापस: । अनेकशतवर्षायुस्तपस्वी कोपनो भृशम्
asminn ṛṣabhakūṭe bhūdūṣabho nāma tāpasaḥ | anekaśata-varṣāyus tapassvī kopano bhṛśam ||
罗摩沙说道：“在这座梨沙婆库塔（Ṛṣabhakūṭa）峰上，曾住着一位苦行者，名叫布度沙婆（Bhūdūṣabha）。他寿数数百年，苦行功德深厚，却又极其易怒。”

Educational Q&A
The verse juxtaposes great tapas and longevity with intense anger, implying an ethical warning: spiritual power or austerity is incomplete without mastery over krodha (anger) and inner restraint.
Lomasa begins (or continues) a tale by introducing the setting—Ṛṣabhakūṭa—and the key figure, the long-lived ascetic Bhūdūṣabha, characterized as highly austere yet extremely irascible, foreshadowing a conflict or moral episode driven by anger.
