Shloka 46
गमनं मे न रुचितं तव तत्र कृतं च ते । “तात! तुम्हारे तपोवन जाते समय जैसा कि मैंने पहले ही कह दिया था, वही आज भी कह रहा हूँ। मुझे तुम्हारा वहाँ जाना अच्छा नहीं लगा और वहाँ जाकर तुमने जो कुछ किया, वह भी पसंद नहीं आया
gamanaṃ me na rucitaṃ tava tatra kṛtaṃ ca te |
Sinabi ni Vaiśaṃpāyana: “Hindi ko sinang-ayunan ang pagpunta mo roon; at hindi ko rin sinang-ayunan ang ginawa mo matapos kang makarating doon.”

Educational Q&A
Ethical evaluation applies both to intentions/choices (the decision to go) and to subsequent actions (what was done there). A questionable end does not justify questionable means; conduct remains accountable.
The narrator Vaiśaṃpāyana reports a statement of disapproval directed at someone who went to a certain place and acted there; the speaker condemns both the journey and the deeds performed, signaling a breach of proper conduct.
