उद्योगपर्व — अध्याय १३५: कुन्त्याः कृष्णं प्रति संदेशः
Kuntī’s Message to Kṛṣṇa
विद्याशूरं तप:शूरं दानशूरं तपस्विनम् । ब्राह्मयया श्रिया दीप्यमानं साधुवादे च सम्मतम्
vidyāśūraṃ tapaḥśūraṃ dānaśūraṃ tapasvinam | brāhmyayā śriyā dīpyamānaṃ sādhuvāde ca sammatam
Anak itu berkata: “Dia wira dalam ilmu, wira dalam tapa, dan wira dalam derma—benar-benar seorang pertapa. Dia bersinar dengan kemuliaan Brahman yang luhur, dan diterima serta dipuji luas oleh orang-orang baik.”
