भीष्म–रामयुद्धवर्णनम्

Bhīṣma’s Account of the Strategic Engagement with Rāma Jāmadagnya

न त्वां रामो रणे जेता जामदग्न्य: कथंचन । त्वमेव समरे राम॑ विजेता भरतर्षभ,“जमदग्निकुमार परशुराम तुम्हें किसी प्रकार युद्धमें जीत नहीं सकेंगे। भरतभूषण! तुम्हीं रणक्षेत्रमें परशुरामपर विजय पाओगे

na tvāṁ rāmo raṇe jetā jāmadagnyaḥ kathaṁcana | tvam eva samare rāma vijetā bharatarṣabha ||

ജാമദഗ്ന്യ രാമൻ (പരശുരാമൻ) യുദ്ധത്തിൽ ഒരുവിധത്തിലും നിന്നെ ജയിക്കുകയില്ല. ഹേ ഭാരതവൃഷഭാ, സമരത്തിൽ രാമനെ ജയിക്കുക നീയേ ആയിരിക്കും.

Educational Q&A

Even against a celebrated and fearsome opponent, one should stand firm in rightful duty; victory is linked not only to prowess but to dharmic resolve and the ordained outcome of a just contest.

Bhīṣma addresses his counterpart with confidence, declaring that Paraśurāma (Rāma Jāmadagnya) will not defeat him and that Bhīṣma himself will prevail in the battle.
