युधिष्ठिरस्य अर्जुनप्रेषण-युक्तिवर्णनम् | Yudhiṣṭhira’s Rationale for Sending Arjuna and Request to Dhaumya
धर्मतीर्थ समासाद्य पुण्य ब्रह्मर्षिसेवितम् । वाजपेयमवाप्रोति विमानस्थश्व पूज्यते,परम पवित्र ब्रह्मर्षिसेवित धर्मतीर्थमें जाकर स्नान करनेवाला मनुष्य वाजपेययज्ञका फल पाता और विमानपर बैठकर पूजित होता है
dharmatīrthaṃ samāsādya puṇyaṃ brahmarṣi-sevitam | vājapeyam avāpnoti vimānasthaś ca pūjyate ||
抵达法提尔塔(Dharma-tīrtha)——那由大梵仙(brahmarṣi)所护持、所常住的圣洁渡口——凡在彼处沐浴者,得与瓦阇佩耶(Vājapeya)大祭同等之功德;并乘坐天界飞车(vimāna),受众所礼敬。
घुलस्त्य उवाच
Bathing at a truly sanctified pilgrimage place—one upheld by dharmic tradition and the presence of great sages—can yield spiritual merit equal to major Vedic sacrifices, showing that purity of place and righteous intent can substitute for costly ritual.
The speaker is describing the extraordinary फल (spiritual result) of visiting and bathing at a particular Dharma-tīrtha: the pilgrim gains the merit of the Vājapeya sacrifice and is honored in a celestial vimāna, as part of a broader tīrtha-māhātmya (praise of pilgrimage sites) passage in the Vana Parva.
