Adhyāya 108 — Nimitta-darśana and Drona’s counsel amid Arjuna’s advance (निमित्तदर्शनं द्रोणोपदेशश्च)
स ययौ रथवंशेन यत्र राजा युधिष्ठिर: । राजन्! आपके पुत्रकी यह बात सुनकर प्रतापी राजा शल्य रथसमूहके साथ उसी स्थानपर गये, जहाँ राजा युधिष्ठिर विद्यमान थे
sa yayau rathavaṁśena yatra rājā yudhiṣṭhiraḥ |
Wika ni Sañjaya: Nang marinig ang pahayag na ipinadala sa ngalan ng anak ng hari, ang magiting na Haring Śalya ay umalis kasama ang isang hanay ng mga karwahe at nagtungo sa kinaroroonan ni Haring Yudhiṣṭhira.
संजय उवाच
Even amid war, actions are shaped by duty and command: leaders move decisively in response to royal intent, illustrating how responsibility and obedience operate within a dharma-strained battlefield context.
Sañjaya reports that King Śalya, after hearing the statement/message connected with the king’s son, proceeds with a formation of chariots to the location where King Yudhiṣṭhira is present.
