Yudhishthira, the son of Kunti, firm in truth, said to him: "I recognize you, O gentle one, as Vidura's friend -- pure, trusted, dear, and always firmly devoted; there is no need of any proof from the sage. As he is to us, so are you to us; we regard you without distinction; we are yours, as we are his -- protect us as the sage would."

Here Yudhishthira displays the nobility of trust. It is telling that, though a proof was offered, he says: "there is no need of proof" -- the righteous recognize goodness by its very spirit and do not demean a friend's messenger with suspicion. In this lies the purity of a trusting heart, which, being itself without guile, believes the worthy. Telling too is the extension of love: "as Vidura is to us, so are you" -- the Pandavas honor their friend's friend as the friend himself. Here it is shown that the love and trust of the righteous pass along a chain of affection: whoever is dear to one dear to us is dear to us as well. Thus the scripture shows how pure and generous is Yudhishthira's trust, answering faithfulness with faithfulness.
