Vāraṇāvata-prasaṃsā and the Pāṇḍavas’ Departure (वरणावत-प्रशंसा तथा पाण्डव-प्रयाणम्)

ददौ तत: कुमाराणां विस्मितानामविस्मित: । मुद्रिकामुद्धूतां दृष्टवा तमाहुस्ते कुमारका:,वैशम्पायनजी कहते हैं--तब महायशस्वी द्रोणने धनुष-बाण लेकर बाणसे उस अँगूठीको बींध दिया और उसे ऊपर निकाल लिया। शक्तिशाली द्रोणने इस प्रकार कुएँसे बाणसहित अँगूठी निकालकर उन आश्वर्यचकित कुमारोंके हाथमें दे दी; किंतु वे स्वयं तनिक भी विस्मित नहीं हुए। उस अँगूठीको कुएँसे निकाली हुई देखकर उन कुमारोंने द्रोणसे कहा

dadau tataḥ kumārāṇāṁ vismitānām avismitaḥ | mudrikām uddhūtāṁ dṛṣṭvā tam āhus te kumārakāḥ | vaiśampāyana uvāca |

Vaiśampāyana said: Then, though the princes stood astonished, he himself remained unastonished and handed it over to them. Seeing the signet-ring that had been drawn up (from the well), those young princes addressed him. The episode underscores the teacher’s composed mastery: true skill is shown not by display but by calm competence, which naturally evokes reverence and inquiry in students.
