នារ៉ទៈបាននិយាយថា៖ «ដោយអាវុធដែលមិនត្រូវខិតខំ—ទន់ភ្លន់ ប៉ុន្តែអាចចាក់ចូលបេះដូង—ចូរសម្អាតម្តង ហើយសម្អាតម្តងទៀត; ហើយដោយវិធីនោះ ចូរដកអណ្តាតរបស់ពួកគេទាំងអស់ចេញ ឲ្យពួកគេស្ងៀម ដើម្បីកុំឲ្យការឈ្លោះប្រកែកចាប់ផ្តើមឡើងវិញ»។

Educational Q&A
Speech can function like a subtle weapon: though ‘soft’ and non-metallic, it can pierce the heart and reignite hostility. Therefore, controlling, purifying, and restraining harmful speech is presented as essential for preventing renewed quarrel and sustaining peace.
Nārada addresses Śrī Kṛṣṇa with a striking metaphor: he urges the use of a gentle yet heart-cutting ‘weapon’ to ‘remove the tongues’ of those who would provoke conflict—i.e., to silence divisive talk after reconciliation so that discord does not start again.
