Yudhiṣṭhira uvāca—

ユディシュティラは言った。「祖父よ、我らは残酷で、罪に沈んでおります。財のためだけに、我らは—邪なる行いによって—兄弟、父、孫、親族、友、さらには子らまでも死に至らしめました。富より生じたこの渇望が、我らを重大な悪へと駆り立てたのです。この渇き（トリシュナー）を、いかにして根こそぎ断てばよいのでしょうか。」
युधिछिर उवाच
Educational Q&A
Craving for wealth (artha-janya tṛṣṇā) can overpower judgment and lead to adharma; the verse frames renunciation of greed as an ethical necessity and the starting point for inner purification after violence.
In the aftermath of the Kurukṣetra war, Yudhiṣṭhira confesses moral anguish to his grandsire Bhīṣma, lamenting that wealth-driven desire led to the destruction of family and friends, and he asks how to remove this craving.
