स्वर्गे दुर्योधनदर्शनम् | Duryodhana Seen in Heaven
Triviṣṭapa
ततो युधिष्छिरो दृष्टवा दुर्योधनममर्षित: । सहसा संनिवृत्तो5भूच्छियं दृष्टवा सुयोधने
tato yudhiṣṭhiro dṛṣṭvā duryodhanam amarṣitaḥ | sahasā saṃnivṛtto 'bhūc chriyaṃ dṛṣṭvā suyodhane ||
ત્યારે યુધિષ્ઠિરે દુર્યોધનને જોઈને રોષ અનુભવ્યો; પરંતુ સુયોધન પર સ્થિત તે સમૃદ્ધિ જોઈને તેઓ સહસા સંયત થયા.

Educational Q&A
Even justified anger must be governed by restraint and reflection; the distribution of fortune (śrī) can challenge human expectations of moral accounting, urging deeper inquiry into dharma and the workings of karma beyond appearances.
In the ascent-to-heaven episode, Yudhiṣṭhira encounters Duryodhana and feels indignation, but he immediately restrains himself upon seeing Duryodhana endowed with heavenly splendor, setting up Yudhiṣṭhira’s ensuing moral questioning.
