वनमभ्यागतो दुःखी निरस्तश्चाप्तबन्धुभिः । सोऽहं न वेद्मि पुत्राणां कुशलाकुशलात्मिकाम् ॥ २३ ॥
vanamabhyāgato duḥkhī nirastaśhchāptabandhubhiḥ so’haṁ na vedmi putrāṇāṁ kuśhalākuśhalātmikām
Translation
and cast off by my trusted kin, I have come to the forest in sorrow. I do not know whether my sons are well or not,
Hindi Meaning (हिंदी अर्थ)
और अपने विश्वसनीय बंधुओं द्वारा त्यागा जाकर मैं दुःखी होकर वन में आया हूँ। मैं नहीं जानता कि मेरे पुत्र कुशल से हैं या नहीं,
Commentary
Having been thrown out, his first concern is still whether his sons are well. The rest of the chapter examines exactly this strange loyalty of the heart.
