Atithi-satkāra and the Consolation of Wise Counsel (अतिथिसत्कारः प्रज्ञानवचनस्य च पराश्वासनम्)
मया च सार्ध वरद विबुधैश्न महर्षिभि: । प्रसादयाशु लोकानां शान्तिर्भवतु मा चिरम्
mayā ca sārdha vara-da vibudhaiś ca maharṣibhiḥ | prasādayāśu lokānāṃ śāntir bhavatu mā ciram ||
Wika ni Arjuna: “O Tagapagkaloob ng mga biyaya! Kasama ako—at kasama ang mga diyos at ang mga dakilang rishi—madaliin ninyong palugdan ang Panginoong ito, upang ang kapayapaan ay maitatag sa lahat ng daigdig nang walang pagkaantala.”
अर्जुन उवाच
Peace in the world is sought through humble supplication and the collective moral-spiritual effort of the righteous—humans, sages, and gods—aimed at winning divine grace for the welfare of all beings.
Arjuna addresses a revered ‘boon-giver’ and urges swift propitiation of the Lord, invoking the support of gods and great seers, with the explicit aim that universal peace be restored without delay.
