28 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे बालकाण्डे एकोनचत्वारिंशः सर्गः ॥१-३९॥ विश्वामित्रवचः श्रुत्वा कथान्ते रघुनन्दनः । उवाच परमप्रीतो मुनिं दीप्तमिवानलम् ॥१-३९-१॥
Thus, in the venerable Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, in the Bālakāṇḍa, [this is] the thirty-ninth canto. Having heard the words of Viśvāmitra at the end of the account, Raghunandana, supremely delighted, said to the sage who was shining like a blazing fire:
श्रोतुमिच्छामि भद्रं ते विस्तरेण कथामिमाम् । पूर्वजो मे कथं ब्रह्मन् यज्ञं वै समुपाहरत् ॥१-३९-२॥
I wish to hear this story in detail. May it be well with you. How, O Brahmin, did my ancestor indeed perform the sacrifice?
तस्य तद् वचनं श्रुत्वा कौतूहलसमन्वितः । विश्वामित्रस्तु काकुत्स्थमुवाच प्रहसन्निव ॥१-३९-३॥
Having heard his words, Viśvāmitra, filled with curiosity, addressed Kakutstha as though smiling.
श्रूयतां विस्तरो राम सगरस्य महात्मनः । शंकरश्वशुरो नाम्ना हिमवानिति विश्रुतः ॥१-३९-४॥
Hear the detailed account, Rāma, of the great-souled Sagara. Himavan, the father-in-law of Śaṅkara, was renowned by the name Himavan.
विन्ध्यपर्वतमासाद्य निरीक्षेते परस्परम् । तयोर्मध्ये समभवद् यज्ञः स पुरुषोत्तम ॥१-३९-५॥
Having reached the Vindhya mountain, the two looked at each other. Between them there arose that sacrifice, O best of men.
