Draupadī’s Lament and Theodicy: Dharma, Dice, and Īśvara’s Governance (Āraṇyaka-parva 31)
Devanagari script
यस्य प्रसादात् तद्धक्तो मर्त्यों गच्छत्यमर्त्यताम् | उत्तमां देवतां कृष्णे मावमंस्था: कथंचन,कृष्णे! जिनके कृपाप्रसादसे उनके प्रति भक्तिभाव रखनेवाला मरणधर्मा मनुष्य अमरत्वको प्राप्त हो जाता है, उन परमदेव परमेश्वरकी तुमको किसी प्रकार अवहेलना नहीं करनी चाहिये
Translation
يا كريشنا، إنّ بفضل رضاه ينال الإنسان الفاني، إذا امتلأ قلبه بالبهكتي له، الخلود؛ فلا تستخفّ بتلك الألوهة العُليا بحالٍ من الأحوال.
