> शौनक उवाच\
> यदाह नो भवान्सूत क्षत्ता भागवतोत्तमः ।\
> चचार तीर्थानि भुवस्त्यक्त्वा बन्धून्सुदुस्त्यजान् ॥४८॥

> śaunaka uvāca\
> yad āha no bhavān sūta\
> kṣattā bhāgavatottamaḥ\
> cacāra tīrthāni bhuvas\
> tyaktvā bandhūn sudustyajān

*śaunakaḥ uvāca*—Śrī Śaunaka Muni said; *yat*—as; *āha*—you said; *naḥ*—unto us; *bhavān*—your good self; *sūta*—O Sūta; *kṣattā*—Vidura; *bhāgavata-uttamaḥ*—one of the topmost devotees of the Lord; *cacāra*—practiced; *tīrthāni*—places of pilgrimage; *bhuvaḥ*—on the earth; *tyaktvā*—leaving aside; *bandhūn*—all relatives; *su-dustyajān*—very difficult to give up.

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

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