Shloka 77
अतिक्रमेच्च माहात्म्याद् दिष्टमप्यर्थपर्ययम् । अतिक्रान्ते च लोकानामभावो नियतं भवेत्,“ये अपनी महिमासे दैवके भी निश्चित विधानको पलट सकते हैं; यदि ऐसा हुआ तो सम्पूर्ण लोकोंका अवश्य ही अन्त हो जायगा
atikramec ca mahātmyād diṣṭam apy artha-paryayam | atikrānte ca lokānām abhāvo niyataṁ bhavet ||
قال سنجيا: «بمحض العظمة قد يستطيع المرء أن يقلب حتى ما ثبّتته المقادير، فيعكس مجرى الأحداث المرسوم. ولكن إن وقع مثل هذا التعدّي على نظام الكون، فالعاقبة المحتومة هي انحلال العوالم نفسها.»

Even if extraordinary power could overturn destiny, violating the ordained cosmic order (dharma/niyati) is portrayed as destabilizing reality itself; ethical restraint is implied because unchecked overriding of fate leads to universal ruin.
Sañjaya comments on the stakes of actions in the war: he frames certain potential reversals of what is divinely fixed as not merely personal or political, but as a threat to the stability of the entire world-order.
