Kṛṣṇa’s Departure, Auspicious Omens, and the Opening of the Uttaṅka Dialogue (कृष्णप्रयाण-निमित्त-उत्तङ्कसंवाद-प्रारम्भः)
धनंजयगृहानेव ययौ कृष्णस्तु वीर्यवान् । तत्रार्चितो यथान्यायं सर्वकामैरुपस्थित:,पराक्रमी भगवान् श्रीकृष्ण अर्जुनके ही घरमें गये। वहाँ उनकी यथोचित पूजा हुई और सम्पूर्ण अभीष्ट पदार्थ उनकी सेवामें उपस्थित किये गये
dhanañjayagṛhān eva yayau kṛṣṇas tu vīryavān | tatrārcito yathānyāyaṃ sarvakāmair upasthitaḥ ||
वैशंपायन म्हणाले—पराक्रमी कृष्ण थेट धनंजय (अर्जुन) यांच्या घरी गेले. तेथे विधिपूर्वक त्यांचा सत्कार झाला आणि सर्व इच्छित उपचारे व सेवा त्यांच्या सेवेस तत्पर ठेवण्यात आल्या.
वैशम्पायन उवाच
The verse highlights dharmic hospitality: a worthy guest—especially one regarded as divine or supremely virtuous—should be received with proper honor (yathā-nyāya) and provided all fitting comforts and services. Ethical conduct is shown through reverence, generosity, and correct observance of social duty.
Vaiśaṃpāyana narrates that Kṛṣṇa goes directly to Arjuna’s home, where Arjuna’s household receives him with due ceremonial respect and makes every desired provision available, indicating a formal and affectionate welcome.
