शान्ति पर्व (अध्याय 38): युधिष्ठिरस्य राजधर्म-जिज्ञासा तथा भीष्मोपसर्पण-प्रस्तावना | Shanti Parva Chapter 38: Yudhishthira’s Inquiry into Rajadharma and the Prelude to Approaching Bhishma
वयं ब्रूमो न धर्मात्मन् व्येतु ते भयमीदृशम् । उपतिष्ठतु कल्याणं भवन्तं भ्रातृभि: सह
vayaṁ brūmo na dharmātman vyetu te bhayam īdṛśam | upatiṣṭhatu kalyāṇaṁ bhavantaṁ bhrātṛbhiḥ saha ||
Chúng ta nói với ngài, hỡi bậc sống theo dharma: hãy để nỗi sợ như thế rời khỏi ngài. Nguyện an lành đến với ngài, cùng các huynh đệ của ngài.

The verse emphasizes removing paralyzing fear and restoring auspicious confidence in a righteous person through truthful reassurance and blessing—especially important for a king whose moral clarity affects the realm.
After an impostor (Cārvāka, disguised as an ascetic) tries to unsettle the Pāṇḍavas, the Brahmins expose the deception and then console Yudhiṣṭhira, telling him to let such fear depart and invoking well-being for him and his brothers.
