Udyoga Parva 142: Vidura’s warning to Kuntī and Kuntī’s resolve to meet Karṇa

Gaṅgātīra encounter begins

यूयं सर्वे वधिष्यध्वं तत्र मे नास्ति संशय: । पार्थिवान्‌ समरे कृष्ण दुर्योधनपुरोगमान्‌,“अत: श्रीकृष्ण! आप सब लोग इस युद्धमें दुर्योधन आदि समस्त राजाओंका वध कर डालेंगे, इसमें मुझे संशय नहीं है

yūyaṁ sarve vadhiṣyadhvaṁ tatra me nāsti saṁśayaḥ | pārthivān samare kṛṣṇa duryodhana-purogamān ||

桑阇耶说:“你们必定会杀尽他们——对此我毫无疑虑。噢,奎师那!在战场上,你们将诛灭那些以杜律约陀那为首而进军的诸王。”

Educational Q&A

The verse emphasizes certainty of outcome in a dharma-conflict: when adharma hardens into aggression, the war’s destructive consequences become unavoidable. Sañjaya’s confidence highlights moral causality—Duryodhana’s coalition, having chosen an unrighteous course, is destined to fall.

Sañjaya, the royal narrator, declares to Kṛṣṇa that the opposing kings aligned under Duryodhana will be slain in the coming battle. It functions as a foretelling within the Udyoga Parva’s war-preparation context, pointing toward the decisive defeat of Duryodhana’s side.
