दुर्योधन उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how pride after success makes a ruler hostile to honest counsel. Duryodhana treats ethical warning as personal insult, showing the danger of rejecting well-wishing advice and mistaking truth-telling for disloyalty.
In the royal assembly context, Duryodhana addresses Vidura and rebukes him for speaking sharply. He accuses Vidura of favoring their enemies and claims that Vidura’s praise of opponents repeatedly makes him an object of the Kauravas’ resentment.
