Shloka 36
युधिष्ठिरस्तु देवेन्द्रमेवंवादिनमी श्वरम् । पुनरेवाब्रवीद् धीमानिदं वचनमर्थवत्,ऐसी बात कहते हुए ऐश्वर्यशाली देवराजसे बुद्धिमान् युधिष्ठिरने पुनः यह अर्थयुक्त वचन कहा--
yudhiṣṭhiras tu devendram evaṃ-vādinam īśvaram | punar evābravīd dhīmān idaṃ vacanam arthavat ||
وَیشَمپایَن نے کہا—جب دیویندر، دیوتاؤں کے مالک، اس طرح کہہ رہے تھے تو دانا یُدھِشٹھِر نے ایک بار پھر نہایت بامعنی کلام کے ساتھ اُن سے خطاب کیا۔

Meaningful speech grounded in discernment is integral to dharma: Yudhiṣṭhira does not abandon ethical reasoning even when addressing a divine sovereign, showing that righteousness involves thoughtful, purposeful articulation.
Vaiśampāyana narrates that after Indra has spoken, Yudhiṣṭhira responds again, preparing to state a significant point—continuing the moral dialogue central to the Mahāprasthānika episode.
