Udyoga Parva Adhyaya 62 — Duryodhana’s Claim of Victory and Vidura’s Allegories on Discord and Risk

तस्य दान क्षमा सिद्धिर्यथावदुपपद्यते । दमो दानं तपो ज्ञानमधीतं चानुवर्तते

tasya dāna-kṣamā-siddhir yathāvad upapadyate | damo dānaṃ tapo jñānam adhītaṃ cānuvartate ||

そのような人には、施しと忍耐の完成が、しかるべきかたちで、しかるべき分量において備わる。自制、布施、苦行(タパス)、真の知—さらには学び得たものさえ—が、自然の随伴者のようにその後に従い、ダルマにかなう行いへと彼の振る舞いを整える。

Educational Q&A

Vidura teaches that when a person is rightly grounded in disciplined character, virtues do not remain isolated: generosity and forgiveness mature properly, and self-restraint, charity, austerity, knowledge, and even one’s learning naturally align with and follow that person’s dharmic way of life.

In Udyoga Parva, Vidura addresses the Kuru court with moral counsel (Vidura-nīti), emphasizing the qualities that make a person truly fit for righteous action and sound governance as the crisis leading to war intensifies.
