Dhritarashtra blames himself too: 'hīnapuṇyaḥ aham,' 'I, bereft of merit' — he links the family's misfortune to the depletion of his own piety. The contrast between the 'śabdam uttamam' of the past and the 'ārtasvara' of the present measures the fall. It is telling that this is a confession: the king does not blame fate alone but senses his own lack of righteousness. The verse teaches that the wise, in misfortune, blame first not fate but the depletion of their own merit: where piety has run dry, prosperity turns to lamentation; and an honest 'hīnapuṇyaḥ aham' comes nearer the truth than complaint against an evil destiny alone.
