संजय उवाच एवं स बहुशो राजा प्रशशंस जनार्दनम् । अर्जुनं च कुरुश्रेष्ठ धर्मराजो युधिष्ठिर:
sañjaya uvāca evaṃ sa bahuśo rājā praśaśaṃsa janārdanam | arjunaṃ ca kuruśreṣṭha dharmarājo yudhiṣṭhiraḥ ||
Sinabi ni Sañjaya: “O Hari, sa ganitong paraan ay paulit-ulit na pinuri ni Dharma-rāja Yudhiṣṭhira si Janārdana (Śrī Kṛṣṇa) at si Arjuna, ang pinakadakila sa mga Kuru.”

Educational Q&A
Righteous leadership expresses itself through humility and gratitude: Yudhiṣṭhira, known for dharma, repeatedly acknowledges both divine guidance (Kṛṣṇa as Janārdana) and exemplary human conduct (Arjuna as kuruśreṣṭha), highlighting that ethical success in crisis is sustained by reverence, recognition of merit, and alignment with dharma.
Sañjaya reports to the king (Dhṛtarāṣṭra) that Yudhiṣṭhira, in the course of events in the Karṇa Parva, repeatedly praises Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna—indicating approval of their counsel and valor and marking a moment of acknowledgment amid the unfolding battle.
