Shloka 44
स्वर्गारोहणपर्व — तृतीयोऽध्यायः
Indra and Dharma’s Consolation; Celestial Gaṅgā Purification
यत्र ते पुरुषव्याप्रा: शूरा विगतमन्यव: । पाण्डवा धार्तराष्ट्रश्न स्वानि स्थानानि भेजिरे
yatra te puruṣa-vyāprāḥ śūrā vigata-manyavaḥ | pāṇḍavā dhārtarāṣṭrāś ca svāni sthānāni bhejire || tat-paścāt devatābhiḥ parivṛto buddhimān kuru-rājo yudhiṣṭhiraḥ maharṣi-mukhāt sva-stutiṃ śṛṇvan dharmeṇa saha taṃ deśaṃ jagāma yatra te puruṣa-siṃhāḥ śūra-vīrāḥ pāṇḍavāḥ dhṛtarāṣṭra-putrāś ca krodhaṃ tyaktvā ānanda-pūrvakaṃ sva-sva-sthāneṣu vasanti ||
毗湿摩波耶那说：在那里，那些英勇之士——各尽其分，今已离嗔——般度诸子与持国之子，都已各就其所命之位。其后，俱卢王由提施提罗，睿智而为诸天环绕，又从大圣仙众口听闻对自己的赞颂，便与法神（Dharma）同往那一境域；在那儿，那些狮子般的英雄——勇猛的般度五子与持国之子——既已舍弃忿怒，便各安其处，欢然而居。

The verse emphasizes krodha-tyāga—renouncing anger and resentment—as a condition for true peace and rightful placement. Even former enemies (Pāṇḍavas and Dhārtarāṣṭras) are shown dwelling joyfully in their allotted stations once wrath is abandoned, underscoring a dharmic ideal of reconciliation beyond conflict.
Vaiśampāyana describes a heavenly scene: the Pāṇḍavas and the sons of Dhṛtarāṣṭra have already taken their respective places, free from anger. Then Yudhiṣṭhira, accompanied by Dharma and surrounded by gods, hears praise from great seers and proceeds to the region where these heroes dwell contentedly.
