प्रतिषिध्याथ तान् सर्वान् भगवॉल्लोकपूजित: । प्रज्ञाचक्षुषमासीनमुवाचा भ्येत्य सत्वरम्,उन लोकपूजित भगवान् व्यासने उन सबको रोका और सिंहासनपर बैठे हुए प्रज्ञाचक्षु धृतराष्ट्रके पास शीघ्र आकर कहा
Transliteration
pratiṣidhyātha tān sarvān bhagavāṁl lokapūjitaḥ | prajñācakṣuṣam āsīnam uvāca abhyetya satvaram ||
Translation
Vaiśampāyana said: Then the revered sage, honored by the world, restrained them all. Approaching swiftly the wise Dhṛtarāṣṭra, who sat upon his seat, he addressed him—signaling a moment where impulsive reactions are checked and counsel is offered to guide conduct toward dharma.
