Saṃjaya’s Warning to Dhṛtarāṣṭra: Accountability, Alliance-Shift, and the Pāṇḍava Strategic Edge
Devanagari script
यदिदं ते विलपितं पाण्डवान् प्रति भारत | अनीशेनेव राजेन्द्र सर्वमेतन्निरर्थकम्,राजेन्द्र! आपने जो पाण्डवोंके बल-पराक्रमकी चर्चा करके असमर्थकी भाँति विलाप किया है, यह सब व्यर्थ है
Transliteration
yad idaṁ te vilapitaṁ pāṇḍavān prati bhārata | anīśeneva rājendra sarvam etan nirarthakam ||
Translation
ਸੰਜਯ ਨੇ ਆਖਿਆ—ਹੇ ਭਾਰਤ, ਹੇ ਰਾਜਿੰਦਰ! ਪਾਂਡਵਾਂ ਦੇ ਵਿਰੁੱਧ ਬੇਬਸ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਵਾਂਗ ਤੇਰਾ ਇਹ ਵਿਲਾਪ—ਸਭ ਕੁਝ ਵਿਅਰਥ ਹੈ।
