tad adbhutamayaṃ dṛṣṭvā nalo rājātha bhārata | damayantyāṃ viśaṅkāṃ tāṃ upākarṣad arindamaḥ ||
Wahai Bhārata, melihat pemandangan yang menakjubkan itu, Raja Nala—penakluk musuh—menarik kembali dan membuang kecurigaan yang sempat ia simpan terhadap Damayantī.

Educational Q&A
When confronted with convincing truth, one should abandon baseless suspicion—especially toward the innocent. Ethical discernment requires revising one’s judgment in light of evidence, preserving justice and trust.
Bṛhadaśva narrates to Yudhiṣṭhira that Nala witnesses an extraordinary sign or event, and as a result he withdraws the doubt he had begun to feel toward Damayantī, restoring confidence in her.
