Shloka 66
न स दुःखाय भवति तथा दृष्टो हि स द्विजै: । 'संग्राममें जूझते हुए वीरको यदि न्यायानुकूल वध प्राप्त हो जाय, तो वह दुःखका कारण नहीं होता; क्योंकि द्विजोंने युद्धके इस परिणामको देखा है
na sa duḥkhāya bhavati tathā dṛṣṭo hi sa dvijaiḥ | saṅgrāme jūjhatāṃ vīraṃ yadi nyāyānukūlo vadhaḥ prāptaḥ syāt, sa duḥkhasya kāraṇaṃ na bhavati; yato dvijaiḥ yuddhasya ayam pariṇāmo dṛṣṭaḥ |
قال سانجيا: «إن موتًا كهذا لا يكون سببًا للحزن؛ فقد أدرك ذوو الميلادين ذلك حقًّا: إذا لقي البطل، وهو يجاهد في ساحة القتال، حتفَه على وجهٍ يوافق العدل والسلوك القويم، فلا يُندَب ذلك المصير.»

Educational Q&A
A warrior’s death in battle, when aligned with nyāya (justice/right conduct), is not to be treated as a cause for grief; the learned regard it as a fitting and dharmic end within the logic of righteous warfare.
Sañjaya, narrating the battlefield events to Dhṛtarāṣṭra, offers a consoling ethical reflection: the death of a hero who falls while fighting properly should not be mourned as misfortune, since the wise recognize such an end as the expected consequence of war.
