द्रौणिप्रतिज्ञा–नारायणास्त्रवर्णनम्
Drauṇi’s Vow and the Description of the Nārāyaṇāstra
तयो: समागमो राजंश्रित्ररूपो बभूव ह । व्यपेतजलद व्योम्नि बुधभास्करयोरिव,राजन! जैसे मेघरहित आकाशमें बुध और सूर्यका समागम हो, उसी प्रकार युद्धस्थलमें उन दोनोंका अद्भुत मिलन हुआ
tayor samāgamo rājan citrarūpo babhūva ha | vyapetajalada-vyomni budha-bhāskarayor iva ||
サンジャヤは言った。「王よ、あの二人の邂逅はまことに驚嘆すべき光景であった。雲ひとつない天空で水星(ブダ)と太陽が相会するがごとく、戦場においても彼らの非凡な合流が現れた。」
संजय उवाच
The verse highlights how extraordinary confrontations in war can appear as cosmic, fated events; the simile suggests that when conditions are clear (like a cloudless sky), greatness becomes unmistakable—inviting reflection on destiny, power, and the awe such moments inspire.
Sañjaya reports to the king that the meeting of two principal warriors on the battlefield was astonishing, comparing their convergence to the striking sight of Mercury and the Sun together in a cloudless sky.
