Arjuna and Yudhiṣṭhira instruct Vidura on honoring Dhṛtarāṣṭra
तत्राश्रमपदं धीमानभिगम्य स पार्थिव: । आससादाथ राजर्षि शतयूपं मनीषिणम्,वहाँ बुद्धिमानू भूपाल एक आश्रमपर जाकर वहाँके मनीषी राजर्षि शतयूपसे मिले
tatrāśramapadaṃ dhīmān abhigamya sa pārthivaḥ | āsasādātha rājarṣiṃ śatayūpaṃ manīṣiṇam ||
Tại đó, nhà vua minh triết đến nơi cư trú của đạo viện; và khi đã tới, vị vương-ẩn sĩ ấy liền gặp Śatayūpa, bậc hiền nhân thấu suốt.

Educational Q&A
True wisdom in kingship includes the humility to seek guidance from realized elders; moving toward the hermitage symbolizes turning from power and possession toward dharma, restraint, and inner clarity.
The wise king goes to a hermitage-settlement and meets the royal sage Śatayūpa, indicating a transition into a forest-ascetic setting where counsel and spiritual priorities guide the next actions.
