Hiḍimba’s Approach and Hiḍimbā’s Warning to Bhīmasena (हिडिम्बागमनम् / हिडिम्बा-भयवचनम्)
न संशयमनारुहा नरो भद्राणि पश्यति । संशयं पुनरारुह्य यदि जीवति पश्यति,कष्ट सहे बिना मनुष्य कल्याणका दर्शन नहीं करता। प्राण-संकटमें पड़कर यदि वह पुनः जीवित रह जाता है तो अपना भला देखता है
na saṁśayam anāruhya naro bhadrāṇi paśyati | saṁśayaṁ punar āruhya yadi jīvati paśyati ||
Hindi nakikita ng tao ang tunay na kapakinabangan kung hindi muna siya umaakyat sa dako ng pag-aalinlangan at panganib. Ngunit kung napasok niya ang panganib na iyon at nakaligtas na nakabalik, saka niya nakikilala ang ikabubuti ng sarili.

Educational Q&A
True welfare is often recognized only after one has faced uncertainty and danger; surviving hardship clarifies what is beneficial and how to value it.
Kaṇika is offering counsel in the Adi Parva, using a maxim-like statement to argue that people learn and perceive their good only when pressed by crisis and risk.
