kṛṣṇena vākyam ukto ’si suhṛdāṃ śamam icchatā |
anvapadyasva tat tāta mā manyuvaśam anvagāḥ ||
அன்புக் குழந்தையே! நல்வாழ்த்தாளர்களிடையே அமைதி நிலவ வேண்டும் என்று கృష్ణன் கூறிய சொல்லை ஏற்று அதன்படி நட. கோபத்தின் வசப்படாதே।

Educational Q&A
One should accept peace-seeking counsel from a well-wisher and not allow anger to dictate one’s decisions; restraint and reconciliation are presented as ethically superior to wrath-driven action.
Vaiśampāyana reports an admonition to the addressed person: Kṛṣṇa has spoken with the intention of maintaining peace among allies and relatives, and the listener is urged to follow that advice rather than succumb to anger.
