योधेषु वाप्याश्रममण्डलं त॑ मुक्त्वा निविष्टेषु विमुच्य पत्रम् । स्त्रीवृद्धबाले च सुसंनिविष्टे यथा्हतस्तान् कुशलान्यपृच्छत्
yodheṣu vāpy āśrama-maṇḍalaṁ taṁ muktvā niviṣṭeṣu vimucya patram | strī-vṛddha-bāle ca su-saṁniviṣṭe yathāhatas tān kuśalāny apṛcchat |
毗湿摩波耶那说：当诸战士离开那林居道场围栏的边界，稍远处驻扎并解下车乘的轭具；当妇女、老人与孩童在营中安然就座歇息之时，国王持国（Dhṛtarāṣṭra）便与般度五子相会，依礼问讯其安康，询问他们一切是否平善无虞。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
Even after conflict, dharma expresses itself through restraint and civility: ensuring the vulnerable are safely settled and then exchanging proper inquiries of welfare (kuśala-praśna) as a mark of respect and social order.
The Pāṇḍavas’ forces stop outside the hermitage boundary, unyoke their conveyances, and make camp; women, elders, and children rest comfortably. Dhṛtarāṣṭra then meets the Pāṇḍavas and asks about their well-being.
