109.3

*yudhiṣṭhira uvāca
pṛthivyāṃ naimiṣaṃ puṇyam antarikṣe ca puṣkaram
trayāṇāmapi lokānāṃ kurukṣetraṃ viśiṣyate //

Yudhiṣṭhira said:—Naimiṣâraṇya tîrtha on earth, Puṣkara in Âkâsa, and Kurukṣetra in the three worlds are the most famous. How do you then extol the greatness of Prayâga only and leave the rest. I feel it difficult to put my faith in your words, which seem to me to be not good without any proof. How does one attain emancipation, virtues and various kinds of happiness by residing there for a few days only? Pray do remove my doubts, from what you have seen and heard.—3-5.
