भीष्मद्रोणयोर्दुर्योधनं प्रति शमोपदेशः | Bhīṣma and Droṇa’s Counsel of Conciliation to Duryodhana

दशाहईकुलनन्दन श्रीकृष्ण! आकाशवाणीने जैसा कहा है, वैसा ही हो, यही मेरी भी इच्छा है। वृष्णिनन्दन! यदि धर्मकी सत्ता है तो वह सब उसी रूपमें सत्य होगा ।। त्वं चापि तत्‌ तथा कृष्ण सर्व सम्पादयिष्यसि । नाहं तदभ्यसूयामि यथा वागभ्यभाषत,श्रीकृष्ण! तुम स्वयं भी वह सब कुछ उसी रूपमें पूर्ण करोगे। आकाशवाणीने जैसा कहा है, उसमें मैं किसी दोषकी उद्धावना नहीं करती हूँ

tvaṃ cāpi tat tathā kṛṣṇa sarvaṃ sampādayiṣyasi | nāhaṃ tad abhyasūyāmi yathā vāg abhyabhāṣata ||

“Dan engkau juga, wahai Kṛṣṇa, akan menyempurnakan semuanya tepat seperti yang telah diisytiharkan. Aku tidak melihat sebarang cela padanya, kerana suara dari langit telah berkata demikian. Jika dharma benar-benar berdaulat di dunia, maka kata-kata itu akan terbukti benar dalam bentuknya yang sama.”

Educational Q&A

The verse affirms confidence in dharma and in Kṛṣṇa’s agency: when a divine pronouncement aligns with dharma, it will come to pass, and one should not respond with envy or fault-finding but with ethical acceptance and steadiness.

In the tense lead-up to the great conflict, a speaker addresses Kṛṣṇa, referring to a prior heavenly proclamation (ākāśavāṇī). The speaker expresses that Kṛṣṇa will fulfill what was foretold and declares no suspicion or criticism of the divine message, grounding this trust in the authority of dharma.
