Kṛṣṇa–Arjuna Saṃvāda in Indraprastha: Consolation, Legitimation, and Leave for Dvārakā (आश्वमेधिकपर्व, अध्याय १५)
इदं शरीरं वसु यच्च मे गृहे निवेदितं पार्थ सदा युधिष्ठिरे । प्रियश्न मान्यश्न हि मे युधिष्ठिर: सदा कुरूणामधिपो महामति:
idaṁ śarīraṁ vasu yac ca me gṛhe niveditaṁ pārtha sadā yudhiṣṭhire | priyaśn mānyaśn hi me yudhiṣṭhiraḥ sadā kurūṇām adhipo mahāmatiḥ ||
“噢，帕尔塔（Pārtha）啊，我此身与我家中所有财宝，永远奉献于侍奉坚战（Yudhiṣṭhira）。因为在我心中，坚战——俱卢的睿智君主——常为我所亲爱，亦恒当受敬。”

Educational Q&A
The verse models dharmic loyalty and self-offering: true service is not limited to material gifts but includes one’s very person (śarīra) and resources (vasu), dedicated to a righteous ruler who embodies ethical governance.
Vāyudeva addresses Arjuna (Pārtha) and declares unwavering allegiance to Yudhiṣṭhira, stating that both his wealth and his own body are perpetually at Yudhiṣṭhira’s disposal, while praising Yudhiṣṭhira as the wise lord of the Kurus.
