Yudhiṣṭhira’s Reproof and Vow-Logic: On Dice-Deception, Exile Terms, and the Governance of Anger

Adhyāya 35

Devanagari script

अमर्षसे जो संताप होता है, वह आगसे भी बढ़कर जलानेवाला है। जिससे संतप्त होकर मुझे न तो रातमें नींद आती है और न दिनमें

Transliteration

amarṣaḥ saṃtāpo yaḥ sa agner api vardhataro dāhakaḥ; yena saṃtaptasya mama na rātrau nidrā bhavati na ca divā.

Translation

Bhīmasena nói: “Ngọn lửa phẫn uất còn thiêu đốt dữ dội hơn cả lửa thường. Bị nó hành hạ, ta chẳng thể ngủ yên ban đêm, cũng chẳng được an ổn ban ngày.”
