Vidura’s Recall from Kāmyaka-vana and Reconciliation with Dhṛtarāṣṭra (विदुरानयनम् / क्षमायाचनम्)
तेषु सर्वेषु शान्तेषु गतेष्वविदितां गतिम् । निर्विवादा भविष्यन्ति धार्तराष्ट्रस्त्था वयम्,“जब वे सभी मरकर शान्त जो जाये और अज्ञात गतिको अर्थात्र परलोकको पहुँच जायँ, तब धृतराष्ट्रके पुत्र तथा हम सब लोग सारे झगड़ोंसे दूर हो जायँगे
teṣu sarveṣu śānteṣu gateṣv aviditāṃ gatim | nirvivādā bhaviṣyanti dhārtarāṣṭrāś ca vayam ||
毗舍波耶那说：“当他们全都被平息——死去而去往不可知之处（后世）——那时，持国之子与我们也将摆脱一切争端。”

The verse underscores the futility of worldly disputes: hostility persists only while people cling to life and possessions; death ‘stillness’ ends contention, reminding one to seek reconciliation and dharmic restraint before it is too late.
Vaiśampāyana comments that once the involved parties are gone—having died and passed to an unseen hereafter—the sons of Dhṛtarāṣṭra and the opposing side will no longer be embroiled in conflict, implying that the quarrel is contingent on their living rivalry.
