कर्णेन युधिष्ठिरानीकविदारणम् / Karṇa’s Breach of Yudhiṣṭhira’s Battle-Line
इति संचिन्त्य वै देवा: परां तुष्टिमवाप्रुवन् । यह सुनकर उन देवताओंने कहा--'प्रभो! आपका कथन सत्य है। अवश्य ही वे दैत्य मारे गये। शक्तिशाली भगवान् जो कुछ कह रहे हैं
iti sañcintya vai devāḥ parāṃ tuṣṭim avāpruvan |
Dengan merenung demikian, para dewa mencapai kepuasan yang tertinggi. Mendengar jaminan Sang Tuhan, mereka menyimpulkan bahawa para Daitya benar-benar telah dibunuh; kerana kata-kata Bhagavān yang perkasa tidak mungkin palsu. Keyakinan itu membawa ketenteraman dan kelegaan yang mendalam kepada mereka.

The verse underscores trust in truthful, divinely grounded speech: when the Lord (or a supremely authoritative speaker) declares something, it is not to be doubted. Such confidence restores inner peace and supports the maintenance of cosmic order.
After considering what they have heard, the gods become convinced that the threatening demons have been destroyed, because the powerful Lord’s statement cannot be untrue. This realization brings them great satisfaction and reassurance.
