Amba–Rama–Bhishma Dialogue on Vow and Refuge
अभ्यगच्छत् ततो राम: सह तैब्रह्म॒वादिभि: । कुरुक्षेत्र महाराज कन््यया सह भारत
abhyagacchat tato rāmaḥ saha taiḥ brahmavādibhiḥ | kurukṣetra mahārāja kanyayā saha bhārata ||
তেতিয়া ৰাম সেই ব্ৰহ্মবাদী বেদজ্ঞসকলৰ সৈতে আগবাঢ়িল। হে মহাৰাজ, হে ভাৰত! তেওঁ সেই কন্যাক লগত লৈ কুৰুক্ষেত্ৰলৈ গ’ল।
राम उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse underscores that significant journeys and decisions are ideally undertaken in the company of the learned and ethically grounded (brahmavādins), and that Kurukṣetra functions not merely as a location but as a dharmic arena where actions gain heightened moral and ritual significance.
Rama sets out and proceeds to Kurukṣetra, accompanied by Brahmavādins and together with a maiden. The narrator addresses the king (mahārāja) and ‘Bhārata,’ marking a transition in the story as the group moves toward the sacred region.
