अध्याय ४ — दुर्योधनस्य असंधि-निश्चयः
Duryodhana’s Refusal of Reconciliation
वैचित्रवीर्यवचनात् कृपाशीलो युधिष्ठिर: । विनियुज्जीत राज्ये त्वां गोविन्दवचनेन च,'युधिष्ठिर दयालु हैं। वे राजा धृतराष्ट्र और भगवान् श्रीकृष्णके कहनेसे तुम्हें राज्यपर प्रतिष्ठित कर सकते हैं
vaicitryavīryavacanāt kṛpāśīlo yudhiṣṭhiraḥ | viniyujjīta rājye tvāṃ govindavacanena ca ||
Dijo Sañjaya: «Por la palabra de Dhṛtarāṣṭra (descendiente de Vicitravīrya), el compasivo Yudhiṣṭhira—y también por instigación de Govinda (Kṛṣṇa)—podría instalarte en la realeza».
संजय उवाच
Even after conflict, rightful governance should be guided by compassion and ethical counsel: Yudhiṣṭhira’s mercy, aligned with Kṛṣṇa’s guidance and Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s directive, frames kingship as a duty grounded in dharma rather than vengeance.
Sañjaya reports that Yudhiṣṭhira—known for compassion—has the capacity to install the addressed person in the kingdom, doing so in accordance with Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s word and with Govinda (Kṛṣṇa) also urging the same course.
