Kṛpa’s Counsel to Duryodhana
Devanagari script
तत एनं शरै राजन् सहसा समवाकिरत् | रजसा चोदगतेनाथ न सम किंचन दृश्यते,राजन! तदनन्तर उन्होंने सहसा बाणोंद्वारा उस सेनाको आच्छादित कर दिया। उस समय इतनी धूल ऊपर उठी कि कुछ भी दिखायी नहीं देता था
Transliteration
tata enaṃ śarai rājān sahasā samavākirat | rajasā codgateneha na samaṃ kiñcana dṛśyate rājān ||
Translation
Sañjaya said: “Then, O King, he suddenly showered that host with arrows, blanketing it on all sides. And as the dust rose up, nothing at all could be seen clearly—so thick was the haze in the midst of battle.”
