Yudhishthira gave him his own excellent seat. When the celestials Rishi was seated, the wise Yudhishthira duly offered him the Arghya with his own hands. The Rishi accepted the worship and became very much pleased.
तमागतमृर्षि दृष्ट्वा प्रत्युद्गम्याभिवाद्यच। आसनं रुचिरं तस्मै प्रददौ स्वं युधिष्ठिरः। देवर्षेरुपविष्टस्य स्वयमर्थ्य यथाविधि॥ प्रादाद् युधिष्ठिरो धीमान् राज्यं तस्मै न्यवेदयत्। प्रतिगृह्य तु तां पूजामृषिः प्रीतमनास्तदा॥
