दुर्योधन–द्रोणसंवादः

Arjuna-vīrya-prasaṃśā and renewed battle formation

Devanagari script

एते चान्ये च बहवो गुणा: पाण्डुसुतेषु वै “बाबाजी! पाण्डवोंके विषयमें तुमने जो बात कही है वह सब सत्य है। यही नहीं, पाण्डवोंमें और भी बहुत-से गुण हैं

Transliteration

ete cānye ca bahavo guṇāḥ pāṇḍusuteṣu vai

Translation

Sañjaya said: “These, and many other virtues besides, are indeed found in the sons of Pāṇḍu.” In the midst of war-reporting, the statement underscores that the Pāṇḍavas’ strength is not merely martial but grounded in character and dharmic qualities.
