अनुवाद

Lomasha said: Having gone through to the end that atonement for the killing of a brahmin, O Yudhishthira, the sage Arvavasu came once more to the sattra. Seeing that his brother had arrived, Paravasu said to Brihaddyumna in the assembly: "This slayer of a brahmin must not enter to watch your sacrifice. Even by a single glance, the slayer of a brahmin will, without doubt, do you harm." When the servants, O king, drove Arvavasu away, he said again and again: "This killing of a brahmin was not done by me." Though the servants repeatedly called him a slayer of a brahmin, O Bharata, he himself did not admit that he had committed the brahmahatya: "This was done by my brother, and I only purified it." The gods, O king, were pleased with the deed of Arvavasu. They chose him and cast out Paravasu. Then the gods, with Agni at their head, gave him a boon. And he chose for himself the revival of his father, as well as his brother's innocence and that their father should not remember the killing; and further, the revival of both Bharadvaja and Yavakri.

भाष्य

Arvavasu asks not for punishment but for restoration. His purity is seen in that he wishes good even for the brother who slandered him.
