तत्र नैवानुतप्यन्ते प्राज्ञा निश्चितनिश्चया: । कृपणास्त्वनुतप्यन्ते जना: सम्बन्धदर्शिन:
tatra naivānutapyante prājñā niścita-niścayāḥ | kṛpaṇās tv anutapyante janāḥ sambandha-darśinaḥ ||
阿悉多说道:“在此等境地,智者——安住于既定的辨识——全然不悲。唯有卑狭而迷妄之人,那些把世间关系看作(并执取为)自我者,才沉沦于哀恸。”
असित उवाच
Grief arises from identifying the self with bodily and relational ties; the wise, whose understanding is firm, do not grieve because they discern the self as distinct from the body and its changing connections.
In Śānti Parva’s instruction on peace and wisdom after the war, Asita teaches a philosophical-ethical contrast: steadfast knowers remain unshaken at separation and loss, while those attached to worldly relations suffer sorrow.
