समन्तपञ्चक-आख्यानम् तथा अक्षौहिणी-प्रमाणनिर्णयः
Samantapañcaka Narrative and the Measure of an Akṣauhiṇī
त॑ दुष्टभावं॑ विज्ञाय व्यासस्यागमन द्रुतम् । निर्याणप्रतिषेधश्व सुरभ्याख्यानमेव च,दुर्योधनके इस दूषित भावको जानकर महर्षि व्यास झटपट वहाँ आ पहुँचे और उन्होंने दुर्योधनकी यात्राका निषेध कर दिया। इसी प्रसंगमें सुरभिका आख्यान भी है
taṁ duṣṭabhāvaṁ vijñāya vyāsasyāgamanaṁ drutam | niryāṇa-pratiṣedhaś ca surabhy-ākhyānam eva ca ||
毗耶娑圣仙洞察到杜罗约陀那心怀邪念、意图污浊,便疾速赶至彼处,禁止他启程远行;而在同一脉络中,也叙述了苏拉毗(Surabhī)的故事(ākhyāna)——以昭示智者之箴言,常在祸心未成恶行之前,力图遏止其害人的决断。
राम उवाच
When a harmful intention is recognized early, dharmic authority intervenes to restrain action; ethical life requires checking corrupt resolve before it becomes irreversible harm.
Vyāsa perceives Duryodhana’s tainted motive and quickly arrives to prevent him from departing; the text notes that the Surabhī episode is told in this same connection as an illustrative narrative.
