Āpad-dharma and Discernment in Livelihood (आपद्धर्मे विज्ञानबलम्)
तस्मात् कथय भूयस्त्वं धर्ममेव पितामह । न हि तृप्तिमहं यामि पिबन् धर्मामृतं हि ते
tasmāt kathaya bhūyas tvaṃ dharmam eva pitāmaha | na hi tṛptim ahaṃ yāmi piban dharmāmṛtaṃ hi te ||
因此，噢祖父，请再说吧——只说达摩。因为我饮你关于正法的教诲之甘露时，并不觉得满足或终止；相反，渴听更多之心愈发增长。

Educational Q&A
Yudhiṣṭhira expresses that true instruction in dharma is inexhaustible: the more one listens and internalizes it, the more one’s desire to understand and live by it grows. The verse highlights reverence for ethical teaching and the ideal of continual learning in righteousness.
In Śānti Parva, Yudhiṣṭhira, seeking guidance after the devastation of war, requests the revered elder Bhīṣma (addressed as Pitāmaha) to continue expounding dharma. He compares Bhīṣma’s counsel to nectar, saying he never feels ‘enough’ of it.
