Adhyāya 45 — Duryodhana’s Distress, Śakuni’s Counsel, and the Summons for Dyūta
रहश्न केचिद् वार्ष्णेयं प्रशशंसुर्नराधिपा: । केचिदेव सुसंरब्धा मध्यस्थास्त्वपरेडभवन्,कुछ राजा एकान्तमें भगवान् श्रीकृष्णकी प्रशंसा करने लगे। कुछ ही भूपाल अत्यन्त क्रोधके वशीभूत हो रहे थे तथा कुछ लोग तटस्थ थे
rahasyaṁ kecid vārṣṇeyaṁ praśaśaṁsur narādhipāḥ | kecid eva susaṁrabdhā madhyasthās tv apare 'bhavan |
কিছু রাজা গোপনে বার্ষ্ণেয় শ্রীকৃষ্ণের প্রশংসা করতে লাগলেন। কেউ কেউ প্রবল ক্রোধে উত্তেজিত হয়ে উঠল, আর কতিপয় নির্লিপ্ত ও নিরপেক্ষ হয়ে রইল।

Educational Q&A
Public assemblies often fracture into praise, hostility, and neutrality; ethically, the verse highlights how admiration for virtue and power can provoke envy and anger, while neutrality may signal caution or moral hesitation in a charged political moment.
In the royal gathering, reactions to Kṛṣṇa diverge: some rulers privately commend him, some become openly inflamed with anger, and others choose to remain neutral—foreshadowing factional alignments and escalating conflict.
