Brahmacarya-Upāya: Jñāna, Śauca, and the Mind’s Role in Desire (शान्ति पर्व, अध्याय २०७)
कि तु यानि विदुलोकि ब्राह्मणा: शार्ज्र्धन्वनि । माहात्म्यानि महाबाहो शृणु तानि युधिछिर
kiṃ tu yāni viduloke brāhmaṇāḥ śārṅgadhanvani | māhātmyāni mahābāho śṛṇu tāni yudhiṣṭhira ||
如今,臂力无双的由提施提罗啊,请听我叙说那执持娑尔伽(Śārṅga)神弓者——圣克里希纳(Śrī Kṛṣṇa)——的伟大德能;正如世间通晓神圣传统的婆罗门所传言知悉者一般。此等赞颂,旨在令心归向达摩(dharma),以忆念那护持并守卫达摩的神圣品德。
भीष्म उवाच
Bhīṣma frames ethical instruction through remembrance of Kṛṣṇa’s māhātmya: dharma is strengthened when one attends to exemplars of divine protection, right action, and the sacred authority preserved by learned tradition.
In the Śānti Parva dialogue, Bhīṣma addresses Yudhiṣṭhira and transitions into recounting the celebrated qualities and deeds of Kṛṣṇa, described as the bearer of the Śārṅga bow, as known in Brahminical/learned circles.
