मागधगिरिव्रजप्रवेशः — Entry into Girivraja and Jarāsandha’s Protocol Inquiry
पततो वैनतेयस्य गतिमन्ये यथा खगा: । विनाशमुपयास्यन्ति ये चास्य परिपन्थिन:
patato vainateyasya gatim anye yathā khagāḥ | vināśam upayāsyanti ye cāsya paripanthinaḥ ||
ដូចសត្វបក្សីផ្សេងៗមិនអាចតាមទាន់ល្បឿនវៃនតេយៈ—គ្រុឌ (Garuḍa) នៅពេលហោះហើរបានទេ ដូច្នេះអ្នកណាដែលឈរជាអ្នករារាំង និងជាសត្រូវរបស់គាត់ នឹងទៅដល់វិនាសជាក់ជាមិនខាន។
श्रीकृष्ण उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse teaches that exceptional, divinely-compared prowess cannot be matched by ordinary rivals, and that choosing to obstruct such rightful strength leads to one’s own ruin; hostility becomes self-destructive when directed against a power moving irresistibly toward its aim.
Śrī Kṛṣṇa is praising the irresistible valor and success of a particular prince, using Garuḍa’s unmatched flight as a comparison, and warning that those who oppose or obstruct him will meet destruction.
