Shloka 37
Sarasvatī–Tārkṣya Saṃvāda: Agnihotra-vidhi, Dāna-phala, and Mokṣa-prasaṅga (सरस्वती–तार्क्ष्यसंवादः)
ततस्तदाज्ञाय मतं महात्मा यथाददुक्तं पुरुषोत्तमेन । प्रशस्य विप्रेक्ष्य च धर्मराज: कृताञ्जलि: केशवमित्युवाच,पुरुषोत्तम भगवान् श्रीकृष्णने अपना मत अच्छी तरह व्यक्त कर दिया था। उसे जानकर महात्मा धर्मराजने भगवान् केशवकी भूरि-भूरि प्रशंसा की और हाथ जोड़कर उनकी ओर देखते हुए कहा--
tatas tadājñāya mataṁ mahātmā yathādad uktaṁ puruṣottamena | praśasya viprekṣya ca dharmarājaḥ kṛtāñjaliḥ keśavam ity uvāca ||
そのとき、プルショーत्तマが述べたとおりの意図を悟り、大いなる魂のダルマラージャはケーシャヴァを重ねて讃えた。合掌し、彼を仰ぎ見て、言葉を発した。

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights a dharmic ethic of receiving wise counsel with humility: understanding the intent of righteous guidance, offering due praise, and responding with reverence rather than ego—an ideal posture for ethical decision-making and kingship.
After Kṛṣṇa (Puruṣottama/Keśava) has clearly expressed his view, Yudhiṣṭhira (Dharmarāja), having grasped it, praises him and, with folded hands while looking at him, begins to speak.
