Shloka 27
उद्योगपर्व — विदुरनीतिः (Adhyāya 37): आयुःक्षयहेतवः, नीतिसूत्राणि, बलभेदाः, पाण्डव-विग्रहदोषदर्शनम्
नाममात्रेण तुष्येत छत्रेण च महीपति: । भृत्येभ्यो विसृजेदर्थान् नैक: सर्वहरो भवेत्,भूपतिको चाहिये कि अपने “राजा” नामसे और राजोचित “छत्र' के धारणसे संतुष्ट रहे। सेवकोंको पर्याप्त धन दे, सब अकेला ही न हड़प ले
nāmamātreṇa tuṣyet chatreṇa ca mahīpatiḥ | bhṛtyebhyo visṛjed arthān naikaḥ sarvaharo bhavet ||
ヴィドゥラは諭す。王は「王」という名と、主権のしるしである天蓋（王傘）を戴くことに満足し、万物を奪い取ろうと欲してはならぬ。臣下や扶養すべき者に財を分かち与え、その生計と忠誠を保たせよ。ひとりで資源を貪り尽くす者となってはならない。
विदुर उवाच
Educational Q&A
A king should value the dignity of office over personal accumulation: be content with the status and symbols of sovereignty, distribute wealth to dependents, and avoid becoming a greedy all-taker. Good rule is measured by restraint and fair support of one’s people.
In the Udyoga Parva, Vidura delivers counsel on righteous conduct and statecraft. Here he instructs the ruler that kingship entails providing for servants and dependents and not monopolizing resources, emphasizing ethical governance amid the political tensions preceding war.
