ವ್ಯಾಸನು ನುಡಿದನು—ಓ ರಾಜನೇ, ಓ ಭಾರತನೇ! ಸಮರದಲ್ಲಿ ಕೌರವರ ವಿರುದ್ಧ ಸ್ಥಿರವಾಗಿ ಪ್ರತಿಯುದ್ಧ ಮಾಡು. ತಾತ, ಐದನೇ ದಿನ ಈ ಭೂಮಿ—ನಿನ್ನ ರಾಜ್ಯವೂ ನಿನ್ನ ಸಾರ್ವಭೌಮತ್ವವೂ—ನಿನಗೇ ದೊರೆಯುವುದು॥

Educational Q&A
A kṣatriya is urged to uphold dharma through steadfast courage in a just battle; rightful sovereignty is presented as attainable through disciplined effort, supported by a seer’s assurance.
Vyāsa addresses a kingly Bhārata hero, exhorting him to fight the Kauravas and foretelling that within five days the realm (pṛthivī) will come under his control.
