Udyoga Parva Adhyaya 133 — A Mother’s Counsel to Saṃjaya
Devanagari script
यदा मां चैव भार्या च द्रष्टासि भृशदुर्बलाम् | न तदा जीवितेनार्थो भविता तव संजय,संजय! अब जिस समय तू मुझे और अपनी पत्नीको चिन्ताके कारण अत्यन्त दुर्बल देखेगा, उस समय तुझे जीवित रहनेकी इच्छा नहीं होगी
Transliteration
yadā māṁ caiva bhāryā ca draṣṭāsi bhṛśa-durbalām | na tadā jīvitena artho bhavitā tava sañjaya sañjaya ||
Translation
When you see me—and your wife as well—worn down and utterly weakened by anxiety, then, Sañjaya, life itself will hold no value for you.
