Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 2 - Chapter 1 - Verse 48


Sanskrit:

शौनक उवाचयदाह नो भवान् सूत क्षत्ता भागवतोत्तम: ।चचार तीर्थानि भुवस्त्यक्त्वा बन्धून् सुदुस्त्यजान् ॥ ४८ ॥

ITRANS:

śaunaka uvācayad āha no bhavān sūtakṣattā bhāgavatottamaḥcacāra tīrthāni bhuvastyaktvā bandhūn sudustyajān

Translation:

Śaunaka Ṛṣi, after hearing all about the creation, inquired from Sūta Gosvāmī about Vidura, for Sūta Gosvāmī had previously informed him how Vidura left home, leaving aside all his relatives, who were very difficult to leave.

Purport:

The ṛṣis headed by Śaunaka were more anxious to know about Vidura, who met Maitreya Ṛṣi while traveling to the pilgrimage sites of the world.
