देवै्हि सम्भूतो दिव्यो रथो गाण्डीवधन्चन: । न स जेयो मनुष्येण मा सम कृढद्ध्वं मनो युधि
dhṛṣṭadyumna uvāca—idaṃ māṃ vaco gatasādhvasam | devaiḥ sambhūto divyo ratho gāṇḍīvadhanvanaḥ | na sa jeyo manuṣyeṇa mā sma kṛdhvaṃ mano yudhi ||
ಧೃಷ್ಟದ್ಯುಮ್ನನು ಹೇಳಿದನು—ಭಯವಿಲ್ಲದೆ ನನ್ನ ಮಾತನ್ನು ಅಂಗೀಕರಿಸಿರಿ. ಗಾಂಡೀವಧಾರಿಯಾದ ಅರ್ಜುನನ ದಿವ್ಯ ರಥವನ್ನು ದೇವತೆಗಳು ರಕ್ಷಿಸುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾರೆ; ಯಾವುದೇ ಮಾನವನೂ ಅವನನ್ನು ಜಯಿಸಲಾರನು; ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ಅವನ ವಿರುದ್ಧ ಯುದ್ಧದ ಚಿಂತೆಯನ್ನೂ ಮನಸ್ಸಿಗೆ ತರಬೇಡಿ.
धृष्टद्युम्न उवाचेदं मां वचो गतसाध्वसम् |
Educational Q&A
Dhṛṣṭadyumna urges strategic and ethical prudence: when a warrior is divinely supported and effectively unconquerable by ordinary means, reckless aggression is folly; one should restrain the impulse toward war and weigh consequences.
In the Udyoga Parva’s pre-war deliberations, Dhṛṣṭadyumna warns others about Arjuna’s exceptional, god-supported martial power—especially his divine chariot and the Gāṇḍīva—counseling them not to fix their minds on fighting him as if he were an ordinary opponent.
