毗舍婆耶那说：众人如此陈情后，伽陀对全体百姓答道：“我的儿子将成为护持整个世界之人；因此你们不必畏惧。”

Educational Q&A
A ruler’s foremost dharma is protection: leadership is justified by safeguarding the people and maintaining confidence in social order. Gādhi’s assurance frames his son’s future role as guardianship rather than mere power.
After being addressed by the people, Gādhi responds publicly, calming their fear by declaring that his son will become the guardian of the whole world, and therefore they need not be alarmed.
