श्रीवसिष्ठ उवाच ।
ततः शिखिध्वजो राजा तत्त्वज्ञानपदं विना ।

śrīvasiṣṭha uvāca |
tataḥ śikhidhvajo rājā tattvajñānapadaṃ vinā |
ājagāma paraṃ mohaṃ tamondhatvamivāprajāḥ || 1 ||

Vasishtha related:—The prince Sikhidvaja continued in utter darkness, without the sight of his spiritual knowledge; and groped his way amidst the gloom of the world, as a childless man passes his woeful days, in utter despair of any glimpse of hope.
