Śānti-parva Adhyāya 3: Karṇa’s training under Rāma Jāmadagnya and the Bhārgava restriction on the Brahmāstra
गच्छेदानीं न ते स्थानमनृतस्येह विद्यते । न त्वया सदृशो युद्धे भविता क्षत्रियो भुवि
gacchedānīṃ na te sthānam anṛtasyeha vidyate | na tvayā sadṛśo yuddhe bhavitā kṣatriyo bhuvi ||
နာရဒ မိန့်တော်မူသည်– «ယခု သွားလော့။ ဤနေရာ၌ မုသားအတွက် နေရာမရှိ။ မုသားဖြင့် အသက်မွေးသူသည် ဤအစုအဝေး၌ ရပ်တည်ရာ မရှိ။ သို့သော် ငါ၏ ကောင်းချီးကြောင့် ဤမြေပြင်ပေါ်ရှိ က္ෂတ္တရိယ မည်သူမျှ စစ်ပွဲ၌ သင်နှင့် မတူမတန်နိုင်»။

Educational Q&A
Truthfulness is a prerequisite for moral legitimacy and social standing; prowess or success in war cannot compensate for ethical failure. The verse warns that untruth disqualifies one from rightful place even if one is granted extraordinary power.
Narada dismisses the addressed person from the present setting on the grounds of falsehood, declaring that there is no place there for one devoted to untruth. At the same time, he grants (or affirms) a boon that no kshatriya on earth will match that person in battle, creating a tension between ethical censure and martial capability.
