Restraint through the Analysis of Karma and Time
वैशम्पायन उवाच इत्येतद् वचन श्रुत्व बभूव विगतज्वर: । युधिष्ठिरो महातेजा: पप्रच्छेद॑ च धर्मवित्
vaiśampāyana uvāca | ity etad vacanaṃ śrutvā babhūva vigatajvaraḥ | yudhiṣṭhiro mahātejāḥ papraccha ca dharmavit ||
वैशम्पायन म्हणाले—जनमेजया! भीष्मांचे हे वचन ऐकून महातेजस्वी धर्मज्ञ युधिष्ठिराचा अंतःकरणातील ताप निवळला; आणि त्याने पुन्हा प्रश्न केला.
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
Right counsel grounded in dharma calms mental turmoil; once anxiety subsides, a ruler can inquire clearly and proceed ethically.
Vaiśampāyana narrates that after hearing Bhīṣma’s words, Yudhiṣṭhira’s worry is relieved and he resumes questioning, continuing the dharma-instruction sequence.
