Shloka 27
स मामभिगतं दृष्टवा जामदग्न्य: प्रतापवान् | प्रतिजग्राह तां पूजां वचनं चेदमब्रवीत्,मुझे अपने समीप आया हुआ देख प्रतापी परशुरामजीने मेरी दी हुई पूजा स्वीकार की और इस प्रकार कहा
sa mām abhigataṁ dṛṣṭvā jāmadagnyaḥ pratāpavān | pratijagrāha tāṁ pūjāṁ vacanaṁ cedam abravīt |
Dijo Bhīṣma: Al verme acercarme, el poderoso Jāmadagnya (Paraśurāma) aceptó el honor que le ofrecí y luego pronunció estas palabras—abriendo paso a un intercambio grave, donde el respeto entre maestro y discípulo se enfrenta a las exigencias del deber y al conflicto que se cierne.

Even when a confrontation is imminent, dharma begins with maryādā—proper conduct: receiving a guest with honor and responding with measured speech. Respectful protocol does not erase disagreement, but it frames it ethically.
Bhīṣma approaches Paraśurāma (Jāmadagnya) and offers him due honor. Paraśurāma accepts the reception and begins to speak, introducing the next part of the episode where their relationship and duties will be tested.
