अनुवाद
Vaishampayana said: "Having thus told the Parthas, Narada, O Janamejaya, departed, surrounded by the sages with whom he had come; and when Narada had gone, Partha, together with his brothers, O Kaurava, began to reflect upon the Rajasuya, the best of sacrifices."

Here the seed sown by Narada germinates into the king's reflection. It is telling that a great undertaking begins with reflection, not hasty action: Yudhishthira does not rush to act but ponders. Thus the scripture shows deliberation to be the beginning of every great deed; and with this the Lokapala-sabhakhyana concludes, [and next the design of the Rajasuya will unfold].
