Dharma-śaṅkā-nivāraṇa: Yudhiṣṭhira’s Response on Karma-Phala and Trust in Dharma
Devanagari script
सिद्धिर्वाप्पथवासिद्धिरप्रवृत्तिरतोडन्यथा । बहूनां समवाये हि भावानां कर्म सिद्धाति,महाराज! कार्यमें सिद्धि प्राप्त होगी या असिद्धि, ऐसा संदेह मनमें लेकर आप कर्ममें प्रवृत्त ही न हों, यह उचित नहीं है; क्योंकि बहुत-से कारण एकत्र होनेपर ही कर्ममें सफलता मिलती है
Translation
Sinabi ni Yudhiṣṭhira: “Magiging tagumpay ba o kabiguan—hindi nararapat na dahil sa pag-aalinlangang ito ay hindi ka na kikilos. Sapagkat ang pagtatagumpay ng gawain ay nagaganap lamang kapag nagsasama-sama ang maraming sanhi.”
