Vidura said:
"Dear brother, your sons have cheated the Pandavas. It is against dharma. The only
way to reconciliation is to ask them to return to the Pandavas all that the Pandavas lost
in the game. It is your duty to do so as King and an elder." Dhritarashtra, on hearing it, flared up: "You are always
partial to the Pandavas. How can I betray my sons? If you do not like us, you had better
go away from here!"
Vidura collected his things and calmly went to the Pandava
camp.
On hearing that Vidura had joined the Pandavas,
Dhritarashtra sent Sanjaya to call Vidura back.
Vidura had no hate in his mind for any one, much less for
his elder brother. So he returned to Dhritarashtra.
One night, prior to the Bharata war, Dhritarashtra was
greatly agitated and did not get sleep. He asked Vidura how he could get peace of mind. |
