द्रोणपर्व — अध्याय 128: दुर्योधनस्य परसेनाप्रवेशः
Duryodhana’s Incursion and the Tumult of Battle
इतो गते भीमसेने सात्वतं प्रति पाण्डवे । सनाथौ भवितारीौ हि युधि सात्वतफाल्गुनौ,'यहाँसे सात्यकिके पथपर पाण्डुपुत्र भीमसेनके जानेपर युद्धस्थलमें डटे हुए सात्यकि और अर्जुन सनाथ हो जायूँगे
ito gate bhīmasene sātvataṃ prati pāṇḍave | sanāthau bhavitāryau hi yudhi sātvata-phālgunau ||
ಇಲ್ಲಿಂದ ಪಾಂಡುಪುತ್ರ ಭೀಮಸೇನನು ಸಾತ್ಯಕಿಯ ಕಡೆಗೆ ಹೋದ ಬಳಿಕ, ಯುದ್ಧಭೂಮಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಂತಿರುವ ಸಾತ್ಯಕಿ ಮತ್ತು ಅರ್ಜುನನು ನಿಶ್ಚಯವಾಗಿ ಸನಾಥರು—ಆಧಾರಸಹಿತರು—ಆಗುವರು.
