Duryodhana’s Envy at Yudhiṣṭhira’s Rājasūya and the Avabhṛtha Festival
सभायां मयक्लृप्तायां क्वापि धर्मसुतोऽधिराट् । वृतोऽनुगैर्बन्धुभिश्च कृष्णेनापि स्वचक्षुषा ॥ ३४ ॥ आसीन: काञ्चने साक्षादासने मघवानिव । पारमेष्ठ्यश्रिया जुष्ट: स्तूयमानश्च वन्दिभि: ॥ ३५ ॥
sabhāyāṁ maya-kḷptāyāṁ kvāpi dharma-suto ’dhirāṭ vṛto ’nugair bandhubhiś ca kṛṣṇenāpi sva-cakṣuṣā
在摩耶·达那婆所建的议事殿中,有一次,法之子——皇帝尤迪希提罗——在侍从与亲族环绕下,连同作为他“自家之眼”的主克里希纳,一同端坐其间。他如同因陀罗般安坐于金座之上,具足宛如梵天的至上荣华,受宫廷诗人颂赞。
Śrīla Śrīdhara Svāmī explains that Lord Kṛṣṇa is described here as Yudhiṣṭhira’s special eye since He advised the King on what was beneficial and what was not.
It is the magnificent royal hall built by Maya for the Pāṇḍavas, described here as the setting where Emperor Yudhiṣṭhira is seated in grandeur during the Rājasūya-related events.
Because he is identified as the son of Dharma (Yama/Dharmarāja), highlighting his identity as a ruler grounded in righteousness.
It teaches that true greatness is measured by dharma and humility—when one lives righteously, even the highest honor (the Lord’s attention) naturally follows.
