धृतराष्ट्र–दुर्योधन संवादः
Vāraṇāvata-vivāsana-nīti: Dhṛtarāṣṭra and Duryodhana’s Policy Dialogue
ततः समभवद् द्रोण: कलशे तस्य धीमत: । अध्यगीष्ट स वेदांश्न॒ वेदाड़ानि च सर्वश:
tataḥ samabhavad droṇaḥ kalaśe tasya dhīmataḥ | adhyagīṣṭa sa vedāṁś ca vedāṅgāni ca sarvaśaḥ ||
随后，从那位智者仙人的器皿中诞生了一子。因其出自“多罗那”（droṇa，器皿），遂以“德罗那”（Droṇa）之名闻世。及其长成，志行严整，通达诸吠陀全体，并精研一切吠陀支分（Vedāṅga）——昭示其一生以学识、克己与圣典知识所赋予的道德权威为根基。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse links birth, naming, and identity to a moral-educational ideal: true stature is established through disciplined study and mastery of sacred knowledge (Vedas and Vedāṅgas), which traditionally underpins dharma and social responsibility.
Vaiśampāyana narrates Droṇa’s extraordinary birth from a vessel associated with a wise sage, explains how this origin gives him his name, and notes his comprehensive education in the Vedas and their auxiliary sciences.
