Chapter 6
सतं निवृत्तमालक्ष्य प्राउ्जलि: पृष्ठतो5न्वगात् । आविक्षितो महीपाल: संवर्तमुपशिक्षितुम्,उन्हें लौटा देख राजा मरुत्त संवर्तसे शिक्षा लेनेके लिये हाथ जोड़े उनके पीछे-पीछे गये
sataṁ nivṛttam ālakṣya prāñjaliḥ pṛṣṭhato 'nvagāt | āvikṣito mahīpālaḥ saṁvartaṁ upaśikṣitum ||
Al ver que el sabio se volvía atrás, el rey Āvikṣita, señor de la tierra, lo siguió por detrás con las palmas juntas, deseoso de recibir instrucción de Saṁvarta.
व्यास उवाच
Educational Q&A
A ruler should approach wisdom with humility: reverence (prāñjali) and personal effort to learn from the virtuous are presented as marks of dharmic kingship.
When the sage turns back, King Āvikṣita notices and follows him from behind with folded hands, intending to receive instruction from Saṁvarta.
