*yudhiṣṭhira uvāca
snehādvā dravyalobhādvā ye tu kāmavaśaṃ gatāḥ
kathaṃ tīrthaphalaṃ teṣāṃ kathaṃ puṇyaphalaṃ bhavet //
King! Knowing this greatness of Prayâga, you should devote yourself unflinchingly to that sacred Tîrtha, because those devoid of devotion and leading a life of sin cannot attain the benefits of this holy tîrtha which is guarded by the Devâs."—11. Yudhiṣṭhira.—"O Sire! how do they get the benefits of the sacred tîrtha who yield to their desires, whether such be feelings of affection or greed of worldly objects.--12.
