Shloka 27
Bhīmasena’s Discourse on Kāla, Resolve, and the Feasibility of Ajñātavāsa (भीमसेनस्य कालोपदेशः)
तच्छुत्वा धृतिमास्थाय कर्मणा प्रतिपादय । प्रतिपाद्य तु राजेन्द्र ततः क्षिप्रं ज्वरं जहि,राजेन्द्र! उस उपायको सुनकर धैर्यपूर्वक प्रयत्नद्वारा उसका अनुष्ठान करो। उसका अनुष्ठान करके शीघ्र ही अपनी मानसिक चिन्ताका परित्याग कर दो
tac chrutvā dhṛtim āsthāya karmaṇā pratipādaya | pratipādya tu rājendra tataḥ kṣipraṃ jvaraṃ jahi ||
«فلمّا سمعتَ تلك المشورة، يا خيرَ الملوك، فاثبُتْ بالعزيمة ونفِّذها بعملٍ مقصود. فإذا أتممتَها على وجهها، فاطرح سريعًا حُمّى القلق—ولتتحرّر النفس من العذاب بعد الجهد القويم.»

Educational Q&A
Adopt steadfastness (dhṛti), act decisively to implement the advised remedy, and once duty is performed, relinquish anxious agitation; ethical effort should be followed by inner release rather than continued worry.
Vyāsa concludes his instruction by urging the addressed king to put the proposed means into practice with courage and, after completing it, to abandon the ‘fever’ of mental distress—moving from counsel to execution and then to calm.
