Udyoga Parva, Adhyāya 72 — Bhīmasena’s counsel on conciliation and Duryodhana’s disposition
सर्वथा युद्धमेवाहमाशंसामि परै: सह । निमित्तानि हि सर्वाणि तथा प्रादुर्भवन्ति मे,मुझे तो शत्रुओंके साथ सर्वथा युद्ध होनेकी ही सम्भावना हो रही है; क्योंकि मेरे सामने ऐसे ही लक्षण (शकुन) प्रकट हो रहे हैं
sarvathā yuddham evāham āśaṃsāmi paraiḥ saha | nimittāni hi sarvāṇi tathā prādurbhavanti me ||
အရာရာအားလုံးအရ ငါသည် ရန်သူနှင့် စစ်ပွဲသာ ဖြစ်မည်ဟု မြင်မြင်သာသာ ခန့်မှန်းမိသည်။ အကြောင်းမူကား ငါ့ရှေ့တွင် ပေါ်ထွက်လာသော နိမိတ်လက္ခဏာများအားလုံးသည် ထိုဘက်သို့သာ ညွှန်ပြနေကြသည်။
युधिछिर उवाच
Even a dharma-minded ruler like Yudhiṣṭhira recognizes that ethical intention alone may not avert conflict; he reads the moral gravity of the moment through ‘nimitta’ (omens) and prepares for the consequences of a breakdown in peace.
During the Udyoga Parva’s pre-war negotiations and rising tensions, Yudhiṣṭhira voices his growing certainty that war is imminent, citing the appearance of ominous signs that point toward an unavoidable clash with the opposing side.
