Parīkṣit-janma-saṃkaṭa and Kuntī’s petition to Vāsudeva (परिक्षिज्जन्मसंकटं कुन्त्याः प्रार्थना च)
उद्धारयामास तदा धर्मराजो युधिष्ठिर: । तेषां रक्षणमप्यासीन्महान् करपुटस्तथा,धर्मराज युधिष्ठिरने उस समय उन सब बर्तनोंको भूमि खोदकर निकलवाया। उन्हें रखनेके लिये बड़ी-बड़ी संदूर्कें लायी गयी थीं
uddhārayāmāsa tadā dharmarājo yudhiṣṭhiraḥ | teṣāṃ rakṣaṇam apy āsīn mahān karapuṭas tathā ||
そのとき法王ユディシュティラは、それらの品々を地中から掘り出して運び上げさせた。さらに護りを整え、保管のために大きな収納箱を用意して安全に収めさせた――託された財を守り、秩序ある管理を行うことこそ王の務めであると示したのである。

Educational Q&A
A ruler guided by dharma does not merely acquire or recover goods; he ensures their proper custody and protection. Ethical governance includes responsible stewardship—securing what has been retrieved and preventing misuse or loss.
Vaiśampāyana narrates that Yudhiṣṭhira arranged for certain items to be dug out from the ground and then safeguarded them by placing them into large chests/containers for secure keeping.
