The verse voices an ethical wish rooted in compassion: even amid separation and loss, one should seek (and wish for others) freedom from overwhelming grief, emphasizing humane concern for the suffering of the bereaved.
The narrator Vaiśampāyana expresses a benedictive hope regarding a person who has been separated from his son—praying that he may not experience sorrow—framing the scene in terms of pity and emotional relief.
