अर्जुनागमनम्
Arjuna’s Arrival and Reunion on the Sacred Mountain
न ग्लानिर्न च कातर्य न वैक्लव्यं न मत्सर: । कदाचिज्जुषते पार्थमात्मजं मातरिश्वन:,वायु-पुत्र कुन्तीकुमार भीमसेनको कभी ग्लानि, कातरता, व्याकुलता और मत्सरता आदि भाव नहीं छूते थे
na glānir na ca kātaryaṁ na vaiklavyaṁ na matsaraḥ | kadācij juṣate pārtham ātmajaṁ mātariśvanaḥ ||
Wika ni Vaiśaṃpāyana: Sa anak ni Pārtha—si Bhīma, na isinilang kay Mātariśvan (Vāyu)—hindi kailanman nagkaroon ng bakas ng panghihina ng loob, kaduwagan, pag-uurong-sulong ng puso, o inggit. Ang mga damdaming nagpapahina ay hindi kailanman nakapangibabaw sa kaniya, kaya’t siya’y nanatiling matatag sa diwa at di matinag sa pasya.
