शल्यस्य सेनापत्याभ्युपगमः | Śalya’s Acceptance of Command
विललाप च यत् कृष्णा सभामध्ये समेयुषी । न तन्मर्षयते कृष्णो न राज्यहरणं तथा
vilalāpa ca yat kṛṣṇā sabhāmadhye sameyuṣī | na tan marṣayate kṛṣṇo na rājyaharaṇaṃ tathā ||
Dijo Sañjaya: «El lamento que Draupadī (Kṛṣṇā) profirió cuando fue llevada por la fuerza al centro de la asamblea real, y asimismo el despojo del reino de los Pāṇḍavas: son agravios que Śrī Kṛṣṇa no puede soportar».

Public humiliation of the innocent and unjust dispossession are grave adharma; such wrongs demand moral accountability. Kṛṣṇa’s intolerance here underscores that dharma includes protecting dignity and restoring justice, not merely personal forbearance.
Sañjaya recalls two pivotal injustices—the forced bringing of Draupadī into the assembly and the taking away of the Pāṇḍavas’ kingdom—and states that Kṛṣṇa does not accept or overlook these acts, framing them as causes that must be answered for.
