उद्योगपर्व — अध्याय ७७: पुरुषकार–दैवसंयोगः तथा दुष्टमन्त्रपरामर्शस्य राजनैतिक-परिणामः
Human Effort, Contingency, and the Political Effects of Corrupt Counsel
सम्पाद्यमानं सम्यक् च स्यात् कर्म सफल प्रभो । स तथा कृष्ण वर्तस्व यथा शर्म भवेत् परैः:
sampādyamānaṃ samyak ca syāt karma saphala prabho | sa tathā kṛṣṇa vartasva yathā śarma bhavet paraiḥ ||
ପ୍ରଭୋ! ଯେ କାର୍ଯ୍ୟ ସୁଚିତ୍ର ଭାବେ ସମ୍ପାଦିତ ହୁଏ, ସେ ନିଶ୍ଚୟ ଫଳଦାୟକ ହୋଇପାରେ। ହେ ଶ୍ରୀକୃଷ୍ଣ! ଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କ ସହ ଆମର ସନ୍ଧି-ସମାଧାନ ହୋଇ, ଉଭୟ ପକ୍ଷରେ ଶାନ୍ତି ହେବ—ଏପରି ଆପଣ ପ୍ରୟତ୍ନ କରନ୍ତୁ।

Educational Q&A
Arjuna emphasizes that careful, proper execution of an undertaking makes success possible, and he urges Kṛṣṇa to apply this principle to diplomacy—seeking a peace that secures welfare rather than rushing toward war.
In the Udyoga Parva’s pre-war negotiations, Arjuna addresses Kṛṣṇa as a trusted guide and asks him to act so that a settlement with the opposing side may be achieved, aiming for peace and security between the parties.
