Adhyāya 160: Arjuna’s Envoy-Message—Critique of Borrowed Valor and Pre-dawn Mobilization
Devanagari script
अनिलो वा वहेन्मेरुं द्यौर्वापि निपतेन्महीम् । युगं वा परिवर्तेत यद्येवं स््थादू यथा55तथ माम्,“तुम जैसा मुझसे कहते हो, वैसा ही यदि सम्भव हो जाय, तब तो वायु भी सुमेरु पर्वतको उठा ले, स्वर्गलोक पृथ्वीपर गिर पड़े अथवा युग ही बदल जाय
Transliteration
anilo vā vahen meruṃ dyaur vāpi nipaten mahīm | yugaṃ vā parivarteta yadyevaṃ syād yathā tathā mām ||
Translation
ウルーカは言った。「もしお前が私について言うことが、その言葉どおりに真となるのなら、あり得ぬことが起こるだろう。風がメール山を運び去り、天界そのものが地上に落ち、あるいは時代（ユガ）さえ転覆するに違いない。」
