उद्योगपर्व — अध्याय ९३: कृष्णस्य धृतराष्ट्रोपदेशः
Kṛṣṇa’s Counsel to Dhṛtarāṣṭra in the Assembly
अभ्यागच्छति दाशाहें प्रज्ञाचक्षुनरिश्वर: । सहैव द्रोणभीष्माभ्यामुदतिष्ठन्महायशा:
abhyāgacchati dāśārhe prajñācakṣur nariśvaraḥ | sahaiva droṇabhīṣmābhyām udatiṣṭhan mahāyaśāḥ ||
ダーシャールハ(シュリー・クリシュナ)が近づくと、名高き王ディリタラーシュトラは—盲目でありながら、理解によって「見る」者として—ビーシュマ、ドローナとともに直ちに立ち上がった。この場面は、国が戦の瀬戸際にあってもなお、クリシュナの道義的・政治的威徳に対して宮廷が儀礼として敬意を払うことを示している。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Even amid political tension, dhārmic culture values honoring virtue and rightful stature. Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s rising for Kṛṣṇa signals recognition of Kṛṣṇa’s ethical authority and the norms of respect that should guide rulers and elders.
Kṛṣṇa arrives at the Kuru court during the Udyoga Parva’s diplomatic phase. Dhṛtarāṣṭra, along with Bhīṣma and Droṇa, stands up to receive him—an act of formal welcome and acknowledgment of his eminence.
