Shloka 35
Devanagari script
तत्र मे रोचते नित्यं॑ पार्थ: साम न विग्रह: । कुरुभ्यो हि सदा मन्ये पाण्डवान् बलवत्तरान्,“अतः मुझे तो पाण्डवोंके साथ सदा शान्ति बनाये रखनेकी ही नीति अच्छी लगती है। उनके साथ युद्ध करना मुझे पसंद नहीं है। मैं पाण्डवोंको सदा ही कौरवोंसे अधिक बलवान् मानता हूँ
Translation
Dhṛtarāṣṭra said: “Therefore, what ever pleases me is that Pārtha choose sāma—conciliation—rather than vigraha, open conflict. For I have always deemed the Pāṇḍavas stronger than the Kurus.”
