Skanda Purana — Brahma Khanda, Shloka 65
युधिष्ठिर उवाच । कथं युद्धं समभवत्कथं चैवापवर्तत । जितं केनैव धर्मज्ञ तन्ममाचक्ष्व मारिष
yudhiṣṭhira uvāca | kathaṃ yuddhaṃ samabhavatkathaṃ caivāpavartata | jitaṃ kenaiva dharmajña tanmamācakṣva māriṣa
યુધિષ્ઠિરે કહ્યું—હે ધર્મજ્ઞ મહાશય, યુદ્ધ કેવી રીતે ઊભું થયું અને કેવી રીતે સમાપ્ત થયું? વિજય કોના દ્વારા પ્રાપ્ત થયો? હે પૂજ્ય, તે મને કહો।
Yudhiṣṭhira
Listener: Vyāsa
Scene: Yudhiṣṭhira, seated respectfully, questions Vyāsa with folded hands; the forest-hermitage setting frames the transition from battle description to detailed narration.
