Jayadrathasya śoka-bhaya-vilāpaḥ — Droṇena āśvāsanaṃ ca
Jayadratha’s lament and Droṇa’s reassurance
व्यास उवाच युधिष्ठिर महाप्राज्ञ सर्वशास्त्रविशारद | व्यसनेषु न मुहान्ति त्वादृशा भरतर्षभ,व्यासजी बोले--सम्पूर्ण शास्त्रोंके विशेषज्ञ, परम बुद्धिमान, भरतकुलभूषण युधिष्ठिर! तुम्हारे-जैसे पुरुष संकटके समय मोहित नहीं होते हैं
vyāsa uvāca | yudhiṣṭhira mahāprājña sarvaśāstraviśārada | vyasaneṣu na muhyanti tvādṛśā bharatarṣabha ||
ヴィヤーサは言った。「ユディシュティラよ、大いなる智慧を備え、あらゆるシャーストラに通暁する者よ。バーラタの家系の雄牛よ――そなたのような者は、災厄が襲うときにも明晰さを失わず、迷妄に沈むことはない。」
व्यास उवाच
Educational Q&A
True learning and dharmic maturity show themselves in crisis: a wise person does not succumb to भ्रम (delusion) or मानसिक विचलन (loss of judgment) when adversity arises, but maintains discernment and steadiness.
Vyāsa addresses Yudhiṣṭhira with honorific epithets, affirming his scholarship and wisdom, and encourages him by stating that men of his caliber do not become bewildered in times of misfortune—framing Yudhiṣṭhira’s response to the ongoing wartime संकट (crisis).
