sarve devā martyasaṁjñā-viśiṣṭāḥ sarve martyā devasaṁjñā-viśiṣṭāḥ | tasmāt putra mā śuco rājasimha putraḥ svargaṁ prāptaḥ te modate ha ||
Translation
Bhīṣma berkata: “Semua dewa, dalam suatu segi, menyandang sebutan ‘mortal’; dan semua yang mortal, dalam suatu segi, menyandang sebutan ‘ilahi’. Karena itu, wahai putraku, jangan bersedih, hai singa di antara raja. Putramu telah mencapai surga; di sana ia sungguh bersukacita.”
