Adhyāya 108 — Nimitta-darśana and Drona’s counsel amid Arjuna’s advance (निमित्तदर्शनं द्रोणोपदेशश्च)
स ययौ रथवंशेन यत्र राजा युधिष्ठिर: । राजन्! आपके पुत्रकी यह बात सुनकर प्रतापी राजा शल्य रथसमूहके साथ उसी स्थानपर गये, जहाँ राजा युधिष्ठिर विद्यमान थे
sa yayau rathavaṁśena yatra rājā yudhiṣṭhiraḥ |
ರಾಜನೇ! ನಿನ್ನ ಪುತ್ರನ ಮಾತನ್ನು ಕೇಳಿ ಪ್ರತಾಪಶಾಲಿಯಾದ ಮದ್ರರಾಜ ಶಲ್ಯನು ರಥಗಳ ದಳದೊಂದಿಗೆ ಹೊರಟು, ರಾಜ ಯುಧಿಷ್ಠಿರನು ಇದ್ದ ಸ್ಥಳಕ್ಕೆ ಹೋದನು।
