O Lakṣmaṇa, when Durvāsa was addressed by the king Dasaratha as to your future he replied in the above way. I have told you the same. Do you not communicate this to Śatrughna Bharata or any body. O foremost of men, Durbasa said this to Daſaratha before me, Vaşistha and other great men.
इदं त्वयि न वक्तव्यं सौमित्रे भरतेऽपि वा। राज्ञा वो व्याहृतं वाक्यं दुर्वासा यदुवाच ह॥ महाजनसमीपे च मम चैव नरर्षभ। ऋषिणा व्याहृतं वाक्यं वसिष्ठस्य च संनिधौ ॥
