Shloka 27
युधिछिर उवाच ये च धर्ममसूयन्ते ये चैनं पर्युपासते । ब्रवीतु मे भवानेतत् क्व ते गच्छन्ति तादृूशा:
yudhiṣṭhira uvāca ye ca dharmam asūyante ye cainaṃ paryupāsate | bravītu me bhavān etat kva te gacchanti tādṛśāḥ ||
由提施提罗说：“祖父，请明白告我：诋毁达摩者，与忠诚奉行并事奉达摩者，死后各将往何处？”
युधिछिर उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse frames a moral contrast: contempt for dharma versus devoted practice of dharma, and asks about their respective posthumous outcomes—implying that ethical orientation and reverence toward dharma shape one’s destiny.
In the Anuśāsana Parva’s instruction setting, Yudhiṣṭhira respectfully questions the elder (Bhīṣma, addressed as ‘Grandsire’) about the fate of two types of people—those who denounce dharma and those who uphold it—seeking authoritative guidance on moral consequences.
