SECTION 56
Vaisampayana said,--"King Dhritarashtra,
ascertaining the inclinations of his son and knowing that Fate is inevitable
did what I have said. Vidura, however, approved not his brother's words and
spoke thus, 'I approve not, of this command of thine. Do not act so. I fear,
this will bring about the destruction of our race. When thy sons lose their
unity, dissension will certainly ensue amongst them. This I apprehend, from
this match at dice.'
"Dhritarashtra said,--'If Fate be not
hostile, this quarrel will not certainly grieve me. The whole universe moveth
at the will of its Creator, under the controlling influence of Fate. It is not
free. Therefore, O Vidura, going unto Yudhishthira at my command, bring thou
soon Yudhishthira.'"
