दुर्योधनस्य लज्जा-प्रायोपवेशविचारः
Duryodhana’s Shame and Consideration of Prāyopaveśa
तथैव तव राजेन्द्र राजान: परवीरहन्
tathaiva tava rājendra rājānaḥ paravīrahan
বৈশম্পায়নে ক’লে—হে ৰাজাধিৰাজ, তোমাৰ ক্ষেত্ৰতো একেই; যি ৰজাসকলে শত্ৰু-বীৰক নিধন কৰে, তেওঁলোকেও যথোচিত ফল ভোগ কৰিব লাগে।
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
The line reinforces a kṣatriya-ethical frame: kings are judged by their conduct in conflict—especially their role in confronting and defeating hostile champions—implying proportional consequences and responsibility in warfare.
Vaiśampāyana addresses a king directly (“rājendra”), drawing a comparison (“tathaiva”) and referring to other kings characterized as ‘slayers of enemy heroes,’ continuing a discussion about royal action and its outcomes in a martial-political context.
