Udyoga Parva 21 — Bhīṣma’s Conciliatory Counsel, Karṇa’s Rebuttal, and Dhṛtarāṣṭra Sends Sañjaya (भीष्म-कर्ण-विवादः; संजय-प्रेषणम्)
अथ ते धर्ममुत्सृज्य युद्धमिच्छन्ति पाण्डवा: । आसट्येमान् कुरुश्रेष्ठान् स्मरिष्यन्ति वचो मम
atha te dharmam utsṛjya yuddham icchanti pāṇḍavāḥ | āsatya imān kuruśreṣṭhān smariṣyanti vaco mama ||
毗湿摩波罗耶那（Vaiśampāyana）说道：“若般度五子舍弃达摩之道而欲求战争，那么这些库鲁族中最卓越者——因其行事不实——必将忆起我的话。”

Educational Q&A
Even when war seems imminent, abandoning dharma is portrayed as a grave moral turning point; falsehood and unethical conduct by leaders rebounds as regret, making them ‘remember’ the warning words when consequences unfold.
Vaiśampāyana frames a warning: if the Pāṇḍavas are pushed to desire war by setting aside dharma, then the leading Kurus—implicated in untruthful conduct—will later recall this admonition when events prove disastrous.
