य॑ प्रपद्यन्ति विद्वांस: सूक्ष्माध्यात्मपदैषिण: । तमजं कारणात्मानं जग्मतु: शरणं भवम्,सूक्ष्म अध्यात्मपदकी अभिलाषा रखनेवाले विद्वान् जिनकी शरण लेते हैं, उन्हीं कारणस्वरूप अजन्मा भगवान् शिवकी शरणमें श्रीकृष्ण और अर्जुन भी गये
ye prapadyanti vidvāṁsaḥ sūkṣmādhyātmapadaiṣiṇaḥ | tam ajaṁ kāraṇātmānaṁ jagmatuḥ śaraṇaṁ bhavam ||
サンジャヤは言った。――内なる悟りという微妙な境地を求める賢者たちは、因の自己たる不生の主に帰依する。同じくクリシュナとアルジュナも、バヴァ（シヴァ）に庇護を求めて赴いた。

Educational Q&A
Even the highest spiritual seekers take refuge in the unborn causal Lord; in the same spirit, Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna seek Śiva’s protection—highlighting humility, surrender, and the legitimacy of devotion within dharma, even amid war.
Sañjaya reports that Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna go to Bhava (Śiva) for refuge, aligning their action with the practice of wise seekers who pursue subtle inner realization and rely on the supreme source for support.
