Shloka 28
राजसूयविचारः — Deliberation on the Rajasuya and the Summoning of Kṛṣṇa
तस्य त्वं पुरुषव्याप्र संकल्पं कुरु पाण्डव | गन्तासि त्वं महेन्द्रस्य पूर्व: सह सलोकताम्,पुरुषसिंह पाण्डुनन्दन! तुम अपने पिताके संकल्पको पूरा करो। ऐसा करनेपर तुम पूर्वजोंके साथ देवराज इन्द्रके लोकमें जाओगे
tasya tvaṃ puruṣavyāghra saṅkalpaṃ kuru pāṇḍava | gantāsi tvaṃ mahendrasya pūrvaḥ saha salokatām, puruṣasiṃha pāṇḍunandana ||
ナーラダは言った。「人中の虎よ、パーンドゥの子よ、父の誓願を成就せよ。もしそれを果たすなら、人中の獅子たるパーンドゥの子よ、汝は他の者に先んじて大インドラの世界へ赴き、祖霊と同じ天界の座を得るであろう。」
नारद उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes dharma as fidelity to a righteous vow—especially fulfilling a father’s solemn resolve. Such integrity is presented as spiritually efficacious, leading to heavenly attainment and continuity with one’s ancestors.
Nārada addresses a Pāṇḍava hero, urging him to complete his father’s intended undertaking. He promises that by doing so the Pāṇḍava will attain Indra’s world and share the same heavenly realm as the forefathers, even reaching it ahead of others.
