Sanatsujāta–Dhṛtarāṣṭra Saṃvāda: Pramāda as Mṛtyu

Chapter 42

न च कर्मस्वसिद्धेषु दुःखं तेन च न ग्लपेत्‌ सर्वरेव गुणैर्युक्तो द्रव्यवानपि यो भवेत्‌,जो पुरुष सब गुणोंसे युक्त और धनवान्‌ हो, यदि उसके किये हुए कर्म सिद्ध न हों तो उनके लिये दुःख एवं ग्लानि न करे

na ca karmasv asiddheṣu duḥkhaṃ tena ca na glapet | sarva eva guṇair yukto dravyavān api yo bhavet ||

सनत्सुजात म्हणाले— जो पुरुष सर्व गुणांनी युक्त आणि धनवानही असेल, तरी त्याची कर्मे सिद्ध झाली नाहीत तर त्यासाठी दुःख करू नये आणि ग्लानीही मानू नये.

Educational Q&A

Do not fall into sorrow or self-blame when efforts do not succeed; maintain inner steadiness and ethical composure, since outcomes are not fully governed by one’s virtues, wealth, or exertion.

In the Udyoga Parva, Sanatsujāta instructs (in a didactic discourse) on higher conduct and inner discipline; here he counsels resilience and freedom from dejection when actions remain unfulfilled.
