Udyoga-parva Adhyāya 30: Sañjaya’s Departure and Yudhiṣṭhira’s Commission of Greetings

'शत्रुदमन नरेश! जब वे बालक थे, तब आपकी ही कृपासे उन्हें राज्य मिला था। पहले उन्हें राज्यपर बिठाकर अब अपने ही आगे उन्हें नष्ट होते देख उपेक्षा न कीजिये” ।।

sarvam apy etad ekasya nālaṃ saṃjaya kasyacit | tāta saṃhatya jīvāmo dviṣatāṃ mā vaśaṃ gamaḥ ||

«Oh domador de enemigos, oh rey: cuando eran niños, por tu gracia obtuvieron el reino. Aséntalos primero en la soberanía y no los desatiendas, no sea que los veas perecer ante tus propios ojos.» Y, Sañjaya, dile también: «Padre, este reino entero no está hecho para bastar a un solo hombre. Vivamos todos unidos y sostengamos la vida en paz; no obres de otro modo y no caigas bajo el dominio de nuestros enemigos.»

Educational Q&A

Power and prosperity should not be monopolized; unity and shared governance prevent ruin. Yudhiṣṭhira urges restraint, cooperation, and avoidance of choices that hand advantage to hostile forces.

In the Udyoga Parva’s peace-effort context, Yudhiṣṭhira instructs Sañjaya to convey a conciliatory message: the realm can sustain many, so the parties should live together rather than provoke conflict that would place them at the mercy of enemies.
