Verse 1.13.2 (Shalini Mataji):
* Vidura was a pure devotee of the Lord. We see here that due to Duryodhana's insults, Vidhura was forced to go out of Hastinapura.
* Even in this distressed situation, he chose the right path of going on a pilgrimage.
* In there, he met Maitreya Muni and was enquiring about knowledge of the soul, the SPG.
* After posing many questions on creation etc, he enquired as to what is the topmost of all
* Finally Maitreya Muni says this to Vidhura: "Devotional Service is the ultimate means to remove all miserable life of material existence". "Vidura was successful in approaching such a spiritual master like Maitreya, and he got the ultimate goal of life: bhakti unto Govinda. Thus there was nothing to be known further about spiritual progress."
* Also we see that Vidhura approached a spiritual master to enquire from him. Similarly, we should also approach, serve and enquire from a bona fide spiritual master to achieve :bhakti unto Govinda.
