यच्चापि वृष्णिवीरेण कृष्णेन कुरुनन्दन । पुरोक्त तत् तथा भावि मा तेअत्रास्तु विचारणा,“कुरुनन्दन! वृष्णिवंशके वीर पुरुष भगवान् श्रीकृष्णने पहले जो कुछ कहा है, वह सब वैसा ही होगा। इस विषयमें तुम्हें कोई अन्यथा विचार नहीं करना चाहिये

yac cāpi vṛṣṇivīreṇa kṛṣṇena kurunandana |
pūroktaṃ tat tathā bhāvi mā te 'trāstu vicāraṇā ||
Vaiśampāyana sprach: „O Freude der Kurus, alles, was Kṛṣṇa—der heldenhafte Vorkämpfer der Vṛṣṇis—einst zuvor gesprochen hat, wird genau so eintreffen. Darum hege in dieser Sache weder Zweifel noch gegenteilige Gedanken.“

Educational Q&A
The verse urges steadfast trust in Kṛṣṇa’s prior counsel: what has been rightly declared will unfold as stated, so one should not be shaken by doubt or over-deliberation when dharma-guided guidance has already been given.
In Vaiśampāyana’s narration, he reassures a Kuru prince (addressed as Kurunandana) that Kṛṣṇa’s earlier words are certain to be fulfilled, discouraging hesitation and reinforcing confidence in the course already indicated.
