Shloka 8
अध्याय ७५ — दैव-पुरुषकार-समन्वयः
Reconciling Contingency and Human Effort
यदीमे सहसा क्रुद्धे समेयातां शिले इव
yadīme sahasā kruddhe sameyātāṃ śile iva
Jika orang-orang ini tiba-tiba menyala oleh amarah lalu menerpa sesama sendiri seperti dua bongkah batu berlanggar, pertembungan itu akan ganas dan membawa kebinasaan—suatu letusan di mana amarah, bukan dharma, menentukan akibatnya.
भीमसेन उवाच
Educational Q&A
Unchecked anger makes people collide destructively, like stones striking each other; ethical action (dharma) requires restraint and deliberation rather than impulsive wrath.
Bhīmasena speaks in a tense pre-war context, imagining (or warning) that if the opposing parties suddenly become enraged and meet head-on, the encounter will be as harsh and damaging as rocks crashing together.
