अध्याय ८२ — केशवप्रयाणे निमित्तदर्शनम्
Omens and Reception During Keśava’s Departure
इत्युक्त्वा केशवं तत्र तथा चोक््त्वा विनिश्चयम् । अनुज्ञातो निववृते परिष्वज्य जनार्दनम्,इस प्रकार श्रीकृष्णसे वार्तालाप करके उन्हें अपना निश्चय बता गले मिलकर अर्जुन श्रीकृष्णसे आज्ञा ले लौट आये
ity uktvā keśavaṁ tatra tathā coktvā viniścayam | anujñāto nivavṛte pariṣvajya janārdanam ||
આ રીતે ત્યાં કેશવને કહી અને પોતાનો દૃઢ નિશ્ચય જણાવી, અનુમતિ મેળવી અર્જુને જનાર્દનને આલિંગન આપ્યું અને પાછો વળ્યો.
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Firm resolve (viniścaya) should be expressed clearly, yet one should proceed with humility and proper decorum—seeking consent and honoring the counselor/elder. Determination is strengthened, not diminished, by respectful relationship and disciplined conduct.
After conversing with Kṛṣṇa (Keśava/Janārdana) and stating his settled decision, Arjuna receives Kṛṣṇa’s permission, embraces him, and then returns—signaling the close of counsel and the transition from deliberation to action.
