Sabhā Parva, Adhyāya 13
Devanagari script
युधिछिर उवाच प्रार्थितो राजसूयो मे न चासौ केवलेप्सया । प्राप्पते येन तत् ते हि विदितं कृष्ण सर्वश:,युधिष्ठटिर बोले--श्रीकृष्ण! मैं राजसूययज्ञ करना चाहता हूँ; परंतु वह केवल चाहनेभरसे ही पूरा नहीं हो सकता। जिस उपायसे उस यज्ञकी पूर्ति हो सकती है, वह सब आपको ही ज्ञात है
Translation
Yudhiṣṭhira said: “O Kṛṣṇa, I desire to perform the Rājasūya sacrifice; yet it cannot be fulfilled by wish alone. By what means that sacrifice may be brought to completion—all this, O Kṛṣṇa, is known to you in every way.”
