Sanskrit Original
धृतराष्ट्र उवाच ये दानशीला न प्रतिगृह्यते सदा न चाप्यर्थोश्चाददते परेभ्यः। येषामदेयमर्हते नास्ति किंचित् सर्वातिथ्या: सुप्रसादा जनाश्च॥ ये क्षन्तारो नाभिजल्पन्ति चान्यान् सत्रीभूताः सततं पुण्यशीलाः। तथाविधानामेष लोको महर्षे परं गन्ता धृतराष्ट्रो न तत्र॥
Dhritarashtra said Those men who always make gifts without receiving any gift, who never accept any service from others, who possess nothing which they cannot give to a worthy person, who are hospitable to all creatures, who are inclined to show favour to every one, who are of for giving dispositions, who never speak ill of others, who protect all creatures by covering them with mercy, and who are always righteous in their conduct, only those men, O great Rishi, go to such regions. I shall go to a higher region. Indeed, Dhritarashtra shall not go there.
