ସଞ୍ଜୟ କହିଲେ— ହେ ଦୁରାତ୍ମା! ତୁମେ କରିଥିବା ଅନ୍ୟାନ୍ୟ ପାପମାନେ, ଏବଂ ନିର୍ଦୋଷ ପାର୍ଥମାନଙ୍କ ଉପରେ କରିଥିବା ଅତ୍ୟାଚାର—ତାହାର ମହା ଫଳ ଆଜି ଦେଖ; ନିଜ କର୍ମର ତିତ୍ତ ଵିପାକକୁ ନିଜ ଆଖିରେ ନିହାର।

Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

The verse underscores karma and moral accountability: wrongdoing against the innocent inevitably yields a powerful and painful consequence, especially when committed with deliberate malice.

What is happening in the narrative?

Sañjaya addresses a wrongdoer (contextually, the Kaurava side) and points to the unfolding calamity in the war as the visible ‘great fruit’ of earlier sins committed against the blameless Pāṇḍavas.
