サンジャヤは言った。「そのとき、大王よ、ヴァールシュネーヤ（シュリー・クリシュナ）はクル族の喜び（ユディシュティラ）に語りかけた。『おお、きわめて賢き王中の王よ。そなたの言葉はわが心にかなう。まことに正しいと思われる。』」

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the ethical ideal of receptive counsel: a righteous leader’s words are to be weighed and affirmed when they align with dharma. Kṛṣṇa’s approval signals that wise speech—especially in a crisis like war—should be recognized and followed.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that Kṛṣṇa addresses Yudhiṣṭhira and expresses agreement with what Yudhiṣṭhira has just said, marking a moment of counsel and validation within the broader Kurukṣetra war narrative.
