धृतराष्ट्रस्य पश्चात्तापः तथा वनप्रस्थानानुज्ञा | Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s Remorse and Request for Forest-Retirement
Devanagari script
इन्द्रियाणि च सर्वाणि वाजिवत् परिपालय । हितायैव भविष्यन्ति रक्षितं द्रविणं यथा,'जैसे सारथि घोड़ोंको काबूमें रखता है, उसी प्रकार तुम सम्पूर्ण इन्द्रियोंको अपने अधीन रखकर उनकी रक्षा करो। ऐसा करनेसे वे इन्द्रियाँ सुरक्षित धनकी भाँति भविष्यमें तुम्हारे लिये निश्चय ही हितकर होंगी
Transliteration
indriyāṇi ca sarvāṇi vājivat paripālaya | hitāyaiva bhaviṣyanti rakṣitaṃ draviṇaṃ yathā ||
Translation
Vaiśampāyana said: “Guard and govern all your senses as a charioteer restrains and guides his horses. When thus protected and kept under control, the senses will surely become beneficial to you in the future—like wealth that, when safeguarded, serves one’s good.”
