उद्योगपर्व — अध्याय ९३: कृष्णस्य धृतराष्ट्रोपदेशः
Kṛṣṇa’s Counsel to Dhṛtarāṣṭra in the Assembly
ततः सा समिति: सर्वा राज्ञाममिततेजसाम् | सम्प्राकम्पत हर्षेण कृष्णागमनकाड्क्षया,तत्पश्चात् अमिततेजस्वी राजाओंकी वह सारी सभा भगवान् श्रीकृष्णके शुभागमनकी आकांक्षाके कारण हर्षोल्लाससे चंचल हो उठी
tataḥ sā samitiḥ sarvā rājñām amitatejasām | samprākampata harṣeṇa kṛṣṇāgamanakāṅkṣayā ||
于是,那满座光辉无量的诸王大会,因渴望圣克里希那吉祥降临而欢欣激荡,众心震颤、席间骚然。此景昭示:当一位秉持正法的调停者现身,即便战云压境,也能唤起希望与自制。
वैशम्पायन उवाच
The verse highlights the moral force of a dharmic presence: Kṛṣṇa’s expected arrival generates collective joy and movement in the royal assembly, suggesting that wise, righteous mediation can soften hostility and reorient leaders toward restraint and right counsel.
Vaiśampāyana describes the royal council becoming visibly stirred—almost trembling—with excitement because they are eagerly awaiting Kṛṣṇa’s auspicious arrival, anticipating his role in the unfolding negotiations before war.
