Virāṭa-parva Adhyāya 29 — Suśarmā’s Counsel and the Coordinated Goharaṇa Plan
Devanagari script
नावज्ञेयो रिपुस्तात प्राकृतोडपि बुभूषता । कि पुन: पाण्डवास्तात सर्वास्त्रकुशला रणे,“तात! जिसे सम्राट् बननेकी इच्छा हो, उसे साधारण शत्रुकी भी अवहेलना नहीं करनी चाहिये। फिर जो युद्धमें सम्पूर्ण अस्त्र-शस्त्रोंक संचालनमें कुशल हैं, उन पाण्डवोंकी तो बात ही क्या है?
Translation
తాత! రాజ్యాభిలాష కలవాడు సామాన్య శత్రువునైనా అవమానించకూడదు; మరి యుద్ధంలో సమస్తాస్త్రాలలో నిపుణులైన పాండవుల విషయమైతే చెప్పనక్కరలేదు.
