अध्याय ८२ — केशवप्रयाणे निमित्तदर्शनम्
Omens and Reception During Keśava’s Departure
राजाओंके बीचमें भगवान् श्रीकृष्णसे ऐसा कहकर राजा युधिष्ठिर उनकी परिक्रमा करके आज्ञा ले लौट पड़े ।।
vrajann eva tu bībhatsuḥ sakhāyaṃ puruṣarṣabham | abravīt paravīraghnaṃ dāśārham aparājitam ||
諸王のただ中で、ユディシュティラは世尊シュリー・クリシュナにそのように告げ、恭しく右繞して暇乞いし、帰っていった。だが後ろから歩みつつ、アルジュナ(ビービャツ)は友であるクリシュナ—人中の雄牛、無敵にして敵の勇士を討つ者—に語りかけた。
युधिष्ठिर उवाच
Even as political negotiations conclude, righteous leaders seek wise counsel and remain mindful of dharma; the bond of friendship and guidance (Kṛṣṇa as adviser) becomes ethically crucial when decisions may lead to war.
After Yudhiṣṭhira takes leave of Kṛṣṇa, Arjuna—still walking along—addresses Kṛṣṇa, described with honorific epithets (invincible, slayer of enemy heroes), setting up Arjuna’s forthcoming words or request.
