Vidura’s Message to Dhṛtarāṣṭra: Authorization for Dāna and Public Welfare (विदुरवाक्यम्—दानानुज्ञा)
प्रवेक्ष्यति महात्मानं विदुरश्न युधिष्ठिरम् । संजयस्तदनुध्यानादित: स्वर्गमवाप्स्यति
pravekṣyati mahātmānaṃ viduraś ca yudhiṣṭhiram | sañjayas tad-anudhyānād itaḥ svargam avāpsyati, nareśvara |
那罗陀说道：“人中王啊，伟大的毗度罗将入于由提施提罗之身；三阇耶因恒常观念于他，将从此处离去而径得天界。此一切，我们皆以天眼所见。”

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights spiritual fruition through inner realization and sustained contemplation: Vidura’s entry into Yudhiṣṭhira symbolizes the merging of a perfected, dharma-grounded consciousness into the rightful king, while Sañjaya’s direct ascent to heaven underscores the power of devoted remembrance (anudhyāna) and purity of mind.
Nārada, speaking with divine insight, foretells two imminent events: Vidura will mystically merge into Yudhiṣṭhira’s body, and Sañjaya—through constant contemplation of Vidura—will leave the world and attain svarga without delay.
