Vyāsa’s Inquiry into Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s Tapas and the Identification of Vidura with Dharma
Devanagari script
भवन्तं चेह सम्प्रेक्ष्य तपो मे परिहीयते । तपोयुक्तं शरीरं च त्वां दृष्टवा धारितं पुन:,“तुमको यहाँ देखकर मेरी तपस्यामें बाधा पड़ रही है। यह शरीर तपस्यामें लगा दिया था, परंतु तुम्हें देखकर फिर इसकी रक्षा करने लगा
Transliteration
bhavantaṃ ceha samprekṣya tapo me parihīyate | tapoyuktaṃ śarīraṃ ca tvāṃ dṛṣṭvā dhāritaṃ punaḥ ||
Translation
ତୁମକୁ ଏଠାରେ ଦେଖିଲେ ମୋର ତପସ୍ୟା କ୍ଷୀଣ ହୁଏ। ଏହି ଶରୀର ତପସ୍ୟାରେ ନିଯୁକ୍ତ ଥିଲା; କିନ୍ତୁ ତୁମକୁ ଦେଖିଲେ ମୁଁ ଏହାକୁ ପୁଣି ଧାରଣ କରି ରକ୍ଷା କରିବାକୁ ଲାଗେ।
