Vyāsa’s Boon-Offer and Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s Remorse in the Forest Assembly (आश्रमवासिक पर्व, अध्याय ३६)
युधिष्ठिर बोले--भगवान्! गड्जाके किनारे रहनेवाले मनुष्य मेरे पास आकर कहा करते हैं कि महामनस्वी महाराज धुृतराष्ट्र इन दिनों बड़ी कठोर तपस्यामें लगे हुए हैं ।।
Yudhiṣṭhira uvāca— api dṛṣṭas tvayā tatra kuśalī sa kurūdvahaḥ | gāndhārī ca pṛthā caiva sūtaputraś ca sañjayaḥ ||
由提施提罗说道：“尊者啊！你在那儿见到持国王——俱卢族中最卓越者——了吗？他可安好？甘达丽与普利塔（昆蒂）是否平安康健？还有车夫之子三阇耶，也都无恙吗？”

Educational Q&A
Even after devastating conflict, dharma includes continued concern for the welfare of elders and former adversaries; compassion and responsibility do not end with victory.
Yudhiṣṭhira inquires of a visitor (implicitly someone who has been to the forest āśrama) whether Dhṛtarāṣṭra is safe and well, and asks similarly about Gāndhārī, Kuntī, and Sañjaya living with him.
