Sanskrit:

त्रयस्त्रिंशच्छतं ह्यश्वान्बद्ध्वा विस्मापयन् नृपान् ।दौष्मन्तिरत्यगान्मायां देवानां गुरुमाययौ ॥ २७ ॥

ITRANS:

trayas-triṁśac-chataṁ hy aśvānbaddhvā vismāpayan nṛpāndauṣmantir atyagān māyāṁdevānāṁ gurum āyayau

Translation:

Bharata, the son of Mahārāja Duṣmanta, bound thirty-three hundred horses for those sacrifices, and thus he astonished all other kings. He surpassed even the opulence of the demigods, for he achieved the supreme spiritual master, Hari.

Purport:

One who achieves the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead certainly surpasses all material wealth, even that of the demigods in the heavenly planets. Yaṁ labdhvā cāparaṁ lābhaṁ manyate nādhikaṁ tataḥ. The achievement of the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the most exalted achievement in life.
