The verse highlights restraint in speech: even if harsh accusations were spoken, repeating them directly to the person concerned may be improper. Dharma includes knowing when silence and discretion better preserve respect and harmony.
Nārada addresses Vāyu and reports that someone had spoken many reproachful words about him, but Nārada refuses to repeat those accusations in Vāyu’s presence, indicating tact and ethical caution.
