Sanjaya names the fault by its own name: "buddhivyabhīcāram," "deviation of the mind" — Dhritarashtra knew what was right, but his mind swerved toward his son. And all see it: "upalapsyanti… mahājanāḥ," the noble will recognize it. It is telling that even the counsel to bind one's own son for the sake of dharma was the king's duty. The verse teaches that love for one's own does not exempt one from the duty to restrain him when he does evil: "buddhivyabhīcāra" — the betrayal of discernment for the sake of attachment — is the gravest fault of a ruler, and it will not escape the gaze of the righteous.
