Kurukṣetra-sainyadarśana and Arjuna-viṣāda (धर्मक्षेत्रे समवेता युयुत्सवः — अर्जुनविषाद)
मोहादेतौ न जानन्ति नरनारायणावृषी । तव पुत्रा दुरात्मान: सर्वे मन्युवशानुगा:
mohād etau na jānanti nara-nārāyaṇāv ṛṣī | tava putrā durātmānaḥ sarve manyu-vaśānugāḥ ||
Sinabi ni Sañjaya: Dahil sa pagkalito, hindi nakikilala ng iyong mga anak ang dalawang ito—si Kṛṣṇa at si Arjuna—bilang mismong mga rishi na sina Nara at Nārāyaṇa. O Hari, silang lahat ay may masamang hangarin at inaakay ng galit na siyang naghahari sa kanila.

Educational Q&A
Delusion and anger distort moral perception: when one is ruled by wrath, one fails to recognize dharmic and divine reality—even when it stands plainly before one, as in the case of Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna identified with Nara-Nārāyaṇa.
Sanjaya reports to King Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the Kauravas, blinded by moha and driven by anger, do not understand the true stature of Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna, who are being presented as manifestations of the ancient sage-pair Nara and Nārāyaṇa.
