Udyoga-parva Adhyāya 34 — Vidura’s Counsel on Deliberation, Speech-Discipline, and Dharmic Kingship
अनसूयु: कृतप्रज्ञ: शोभनान्याचरन् सदा । न कृच्छूं महदाप्रोति सर्वत्र च विरोचते,दोषदृष्टिसे रहित शुद्ध बुद्धिवाला पुरुष सदा शुभकर्मोका अनुष्ठान करता हुआ महान् सुखको प्राप्त होता है और सर्वत्र उसका सम्मान होता है
an-asūyuḥ kṛta-prajñaḥ śobhanāny ācaran sadā | na kṛcchraṁ mahad āpnoti sarvatra ca virocate ||
अनसूयुः कृतप्रज्ञः शोभनान्याचरन् सदा । न कृच्छ्रं महदाप्नोति सर्वत्र च विरोचते ॥

Freedom from envy, steadiness of judgment, and consistent noble conduct protect a person from severe hardship and make them respected in all settings.
In the Udyoga Parva, Vidura offers moral and political counsel; here he highlights personal virtues—non-envy and steadfast wisdom—as the foundation for well-being and social honor amid the tensions leading to war.
