Your inquiries were full and your studies were also well fulfilled, and «
there is no doubt that you have prepared a great and wonderful work, the
Mahabharata, which is full of all kinds of Vedic sequences elaborately
explained.
PURPORT
The despondency of Vyasadeva was certainly not due to his lack of
sufficient knowledge because as a student he had fully inquired about the
Vedic literatures, as a result of which the Mahabharata is compiled with
full explanation of the Vedas.
