अध्याय ५६ — च्यवन–कुशिकसंवादः
Cyavana–Kuśika Dialogue on Lineage, Conflict, and Transmission
तत्रापि राजा प्रीतात्मा यथादिष्टमथाकरोत् । ततो<स्य भगवान् प्रीतो बभूव मुनिसत्तम:
tatrāpi rājā prītātmā yathādiṣṭam athākarot | tato 'sya bhagavān prīto babhūva munisattamaḥ ||
ସେଇ କାର୍ଯ୍ୟରେ ମଧ୍ୟ ରାଜା ପ୍ରସନ୍ନଚିତ୍ତରେ ଯେପରି ଆଦେଶ ମିଳିଥିଲା ସେପରି କଲେ। ତେଣୁ ମୁନିଶ୍ରେଷ୍ଠ ଭଗବାନ୍ (ଚ୍ୟବନ) ତାଙ୍କ ଉପରେ ଅତ୍ୟନ୍ତ ପ୍ରସନ୍ନ ହେଲେ।
भीष्म उवाच
A ruler should follow righteous instruction with a willing and joyful mind; sincere compliance (not mere outward submission) earns the approval of the wise and strengthens one’s dharma.
Bhishma narrates that King Kushika, even in a difficult or delicate task, carried out the sage’s directive exactly as told; as a result, the revered sage Chyavana became satisfied with him.
