Yudhiṣṭhira’s Reproof and Vow-Logic: On Dice-Deception, Exile Terms, and the Governance of Anger

Adhyāya 35

Devanagari script

अमर्षसे जो संताप होता है, वह आगसे भी बढ़कर जलानेवाला है। जिससे संतप्त होकर मुझे न तो रातमें नींद आती है और न दिनमें

Transliteration

amarṣaḥ saṃtāpo yaḥ sa agner api vardhataro dāhakaḥ; yena saṃtaptasya mama na rātrau nidrā bhavati na ca divā.

Translation

ഭീമസേനൻ പറഞ്ഞു—അമർഷത്തിൽ നിന്നുയരുന്ന ദാഹം അഗ്നിയേക്കാൾ പോലും കൂടുതൽ ദഹിപ്പിക്കുന്നതാണ്. അതാൽ പീഡിതനായ എനിക്ക് രാത്രിയിൽ നിദ്രയില്ല; പകലിൽ സമാധാനവും ഇല്ല.
