न हास्तिनपुरे त्राणं तव पश्यामि किंचन । व्यायामेन परीप्सस्व जीवितं कौरवात्मज,“धृतराष्ट्रकुमार! अब हस्तिनापुरमें तेरी जीवन-रक्षाका कोई उपाय मुझे नहीं दिखायी देता; अतः देश-देशान्तरोंमें घूमकर अपनी जान बचा
Uttara uvāca — na hāstinapure trāṇaṃ tava paśyāmi kiṃcana | vyāyāmena parīpsasva jīvitaṃ kauravātmaja ||
Uttara sprach: „In Hastināpura sehe ich für dich keinerlei Schutz. Darum, o Sohn des Kuru-Geschlechts, mühe dich mit eigener Kraft und Klugheit, dein Leben zu bewahren.“
उत्तर उवाच
When external support and safe refuge are absent, one should act decisively and rely on personal effort and prudent strategy to preserve life; this is presented as practical counsel within a dharmic framework rather than mere fear.
Uttara addresses a Kaurava-descended person and declares that in Hastināpura there is no means of protection for him; he urges him to strive through exertion and initiative to safeguard his life, implying withdrawal or seeking safety elsewhere.
