Sanskrit Original
धृतराष्ट्र उवाच ये ब्राह्मणा मृदवः सत्यशीला बहुश्रुताः सर्वभूताभिरामाः। येऽधीयते सेतिहासं पुराणं मध्वाहुत्या जुह्वति वै द्विजेभ्यः॥ तथाविधानामेष लोको महर्षे परं गन्ता धृतराष्ट्रो न तत्र। यद् विद्यते विदितं स्थानमस्ति तद् ब्रूहि त्वं त्वरितो ह्येष यामि॥
Those Brahmanas who have mild dispositions, who are devoted to truth, who are endued with scriptural knowledge, who are compassionate to all creatures, who study, the Puranas with all the histories, who pour libations on the sacred fire and make gifts of honcy to the Brahmanas, go to such regions, O great Rishi! I shall go to a higher region. Indeed, Dhritarashtra shall not go there. If you are acquainted with any other wellknown region of happiness, speak to me, for I shall go even there.
