Shloka 11
स्वर्गे दुर्योधनदर्शनम् | Duryodhana Seen in Heaven
Triviṣṭapa
नैवमित्यब्रवीत् तं तु नारद: प्रहसन्निव । स्वर्गे निवासे राजेन्द्र विरुद्ध चापि नश्यति
naivam ity abravīt taṃ tu nāradaḥ prahasann iva | svarge nivāse rājendra viruddhaṃ cāpi naśyati ||
وَیشَمپایَن نے کہا—یہ سن کر نارَد جی گویا مسکرا کر بولے—“نہیں، نہیں، راجندر! ایسی بات نہ کہو۔ سَوَرگ میں رہنے سے پچھلا بیر اور مخالفت بھی مٹ جاتی ہے۔”

Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that in the heavenly state (svarga-nivāsa), old antagonisms lose their force—hostility and opposition ‘perish.’ It presents reconciliation as a natural consequence of transcending worldly rivalry.
Vaiśaṃpāyana reports that Nārada responds to a king’s statement with a gentle smile and corrects him: he should not speak that way, because residence in heaven causes prior enmity to be extinguished.
