Adhyāya 62: Sañjaya’s Admonition to Dhṛtarāṣṭra on Rāja-dharma and Consequence
ततो<ड्गुलिभ्यो हीन्द्रस्य प्रादुरासीत् पयो5मृतम् । मां धास्यतीति कारुण्याद् यदिन्द्रो हन्वकम्पयत्
tato 'ṅgulibhyo hīndrasya prādurāsīt payo 'mṛtam | māṃ dhāsyatīti kāruṇyād yad indro hanvakampayat ||
ແລ້ວຕໍ່ມາ ຈາກນິ້ວມືຂອງອິນທຣະເອງ ກໍປາກົດນ້ຳນົມດຸດດັ່ງອະມຣິຕ. ເພາະຄວາມເມດຕາກະຣຸນາ—ຄິດວ່າ «ເຂົາຈະດູດນົມຈາກຂ້າ»—ອິນທຣະຈຶ່ງເຮັດໃຫ້ຄາງຂອງຕົນສັ່ນໄຫວ។
नारद उवाच
The verse highlights kāruṇya (compassion) as a force that can soften even the powerful and redirect events away from harm; mercy can arise unexpectedly and become a source of protection and sustenance.
Nārada narrates that Indra, feeling compassion and anticipating being suckled, causes his jaw to tremble; simultaneously, a milk-like amṛta manifests from his fingers—an extraordinary sign of divine response within the story.
