Shloka 34
Draupadī’s Exhortation on Rājadharma and Daṇḍa (द्रौपद्याः राजधर्मोपदेशः)
कुरुते मूढ एवं हि य: श्रेयो नाधिगच्छति । धूपैरठ्जनयोगैश्व नस्यकर्मभिरेव च
kurute mūḍha evaṁ hi yaḥ śreyo nādhigacchati | dhūpair añjanayogaiś ca nasyakarmabhir eva ca ||
迷妄之人便如此行事，因此不能获得真正有益之道。他忙于熏烟、点涂眼药（黑膏），以及鼻疗等种种外在手段，却终究达不到应当追求的更高善果。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
A deluded person mistakes external or merely remedial acts for the pursuit of the highest good (śreyaḥ). Without right understanding and proper aim, such actions do not lead to true welfare.
Vaiśampāyana continues a didactic passage in the Śānti Parva, characterizing the misguided seeker: instead of pursuing the higher good, he relies on outward treatments (fumigation, collyrium, nasal procedures) and thus fails to attain śreyaḥ.
