Nārada’s Account

Devanagari script

तदिदं जीवित तेषां तव किल्बिषनाशनम्‌ । सम्मन्तव्यं महाराज पाण्डवानां च दर्शनम्‌,अतः महाराज! पाण्डवोंका यह जीवित रहना और उनका दर्शन होना वास्तवमें तुम्हारे ऊपर लगे हुए कलंकका नाश करनेवाला है, ऐसा मानना चाहिये

Transliteration

tad idaṃ jīvitaṃ teṣāṃ tava kilbiṣa-nāśanam | sammantavyaṃ mahārāja pāṇḍavānāṃ ca darśanam ||

Translation

ভীষ্ম বললেন—মহারাজ! পাণ্ডবদের বেঁচে থাকা এবং তাদের দর্শন লাভ করা—এ দুটিই নিশ্চয়ই আপনার ওপর আরোপিত পাপকলঙ্ক নাশ করে; এভাবেই তা গ্রহণ করা উচিত।
