Yudhishthira said You, O grandfather, are our highest preceptor in the matter of all acts which it is difficult to perform. I ask, how should one judge of an act regarding one's obligation to do it or of abstaining from it? Is it to be judged quickly or with delay?
युधिष्ठिर उवाच कथं कार्यं परीक्षेत शीघ्रं वाथ चिरेण वा। सर्वथा कार्यदुर्गेऽस्मिन् भवान् नः परमो गुरुः॥
