Udyoga-parva Adhyāya 69: Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s Reverential Address to Sañjaya on Vāsudeva
एवंविधो धर्मनित्यो भगवान् मधुसूदन: । आगन्ता हि महाबाहुरानृशंस्यार्थमच्युत:
evaṃvidho dharmanityo bhagavān madhusūdanaḥ | āgantā hi mahābāhur ānṛśaṃsyārtham acyutaḥ ||
ဤသို့ပင် ဓမ္မ၌ အမြဲတည်ကြည်သော ဘုရားသဘော မဓုသူဒန၏ သဘောသဘာဝသည် ထိုကဲ့သို့ဖြစ်သည်။ မဟာလက်တံရှင် အချျုတသည် ကရုဏာကြောင့် ဤနေရာသို့ မလွဲမသွေ လာမည်ဖြစ်ပြီး၊ ကောရဝတို့အပေါ် ကရုဏာပြုကာ မှန်ကန်သောအရာကို ထောက်တည်ရန် ဖြစ်သည်။

The verse highlights an ideal of righteous power: true strength remains unwavering in dharma and is guided by ānṛśaṃsya (compassion/non-cruelty). Kṛṣṇa’s coming is framed not as aggression but as an ethical intervention meant to restrain harm and uphold moral order.
Sañjaya describes Kṛṣṇa’s character and intention: Kṛṣṇa (Madhusūdana/Acyuta), steadfast in dharma, is about to arrive with the purpose of showing mercy to the Kauravas—contextually pointing to his role as a mediator seeking a just resolution before war.
