Adhyāya 62: Marutta’s Treasure and the Pāṇḍavas’ Auspicious Departure (मरुत्तस्य धनप्राप्त्युपक्रमः)
आजगाम ततो व्यासो ज्ञात्वा दिव्येन चक्षुषा । समागम्याब्रवीद् धीमान् पृथां पृुथुललोचनाम्
ājagāma tato vyāso jñātvā divyena cakṣuṣā | samāgamyābravīd dhīmān pṛthāṃ pṛthulalocanām |
Entonces llegó Vyāsa, tras haber percibido la situación con su visión divina. El sabio se acercó y se dirigió a Pṛthā (Kuntī), la de grandes ojos; y, reuniéndose con ella y con Uttarā, habló para consolarlas e instruirlas: «Oh ilustre Uttarā, abandona este duelo. Tu hijo estará dotado de gran esplendor.»

Grief should be tempered by dharmic understanding and trust in a larger moral order: Vyāsa, seeing with divine insight, redirects sorrow into steadiness by affirming the future good (the child’s destined greatness) and restoring hope and responsibility.
After perceiving events through divine sight, Vyāsa comes to Kuntī and Uttarā and speaks words of reassurance, urging Uttarā to abandon grief and declaring that her son will be greatly radiant—foreshadowing the continuation of the Kuru line through Parīkṣit.
