Shloka 33
सहैव कृपभोजाभ्यां द्रौणिर्युद्धादमुच्यत । युयुत्सुश्चापि कौरव्यो मुक्त:पाण्डवसंश्रयात्,कौरवोंके पक्षमें कृपाचार्य और कृतवर्माके साथ द्रोणपुत्र अश्वत्थामा युद्धसे जीवित बचा है। कुरुवंशी युयुत्सु भी पाण्डवोंका आश्रय लेनेके कारण बच गये हैं
sahaiva kṛpabhojābhyāṃ drauṇir yuddād amucyata | yuyutsuś cāpi kauravyo muktaḥ pāṇḍavasaṃśrayāt ||
کِرِپ اور بھوج (کرت ورما) کے ساتھ درون کے بیٹے اشوتھاما جنگ سے زندہ بچ نکلا۔ اور یویوتسو بھی، جو پیدائش سے کورو تھا، پانڈوؤں کی پناہ لینے کے سبب بچ گیا۔

The verse highlights that in the aftermath of adharma-filled conflict, one’s fate can hinge on moral alignment and chosen refuge: Yuyutsu is spared not by birth-status as a Kaurava, but because he sought the Pāṇḍavas’ protection—implying that ethical choice and right association can outweigh mere lineage.
Kṛṣṇa (Vāsudeva) recounts who remained alive after the great war: Aśvatthāman survived along with Kṛpācārya and Kṛtavarman, and Yuyutsu—though a Kaurava—was saved because he had taken shelter with the Pāṇḍavas.
