Shloka 15
उद्योगपर्व — अध्याय १३५: कुन्त्याः कृष्णं प्रति संदेशः
Kuntī’s Message to Kṛṣṇa
अतृप्यन्नमृतस्येव कृच्छाल्लब्धस्य बान्धवात् | उद्यच्छाम्येष शत्रूणां नियमाय जयाय च,तेरे ये अमृतके समान वचन बड़ी कठिनाईसे सुननेको मिले थे। उन्हें सुनकर मैं तृप्त नहीं होता था। यह देखो, अब मैं शत्रुओंका दमन और विजयकी प्राप्ति करनेके लिये बन्धु- बान्धवोंके साथ उद्योग कर रहा हूँ
atṛpyann amṛtasyeva kṛcchrāl labdhasya bāndhavāt | udyacchāmy eṣa śatrūṇāṃ niyamāya jayāya ca ||
Like one who cannot be sated with nectar obtained only after great hardship from a kinsman, I too was not satisfied after hearing those nectar-like words so difficult to come by. Look—now I am rising to action, together with my relatives, to restrain and subdue the enemies and to win victory.
