Chapter 20
ततो व्योम महाराज शतसूर्यमिवाभवत् । शतचन्द्रं च कौन्तेय सहस्नायुततारकम्,कुन्तीपुत्र महाराज युधिष्ठिर! इसके बाद आकाश सौ सूर्योसे उदभासित-सा दिखायी देने लगा। उसमें सैकड़ों चन्द्रमा और करोड़ों तारे दिखायी देने लगे
tato vyoma mahārāja śatasūryam ivābhavat | śatacandraṃ ca kaunteya sahasrāyutatārakam ||
随后，噢伟大的君王，苍穹仿佛被百轮太阳照亮。噢昆蒂之子，它又以百轮明月与成千上万、乃至数万群星而辉耀——此等震撼的天象，昭示着叙事将迎来决定性的、带着神力的转折。

Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes how extraordinary cosmic signs can mark moments of divine intervention or moral turning points; it invites the listener to recognize that dharmic events may be accompanied by awe-inspiring manifestations that humble human pride and reorient attention toward higher order and purpose.
Vāsudeva describes a sudden transformation of the heavens: the sky blazes as if with a hundred suns, accompanied by a hundred moons and innumerable stars—an adbhuta (marvel/omen) indicating an exceptional, superhuman occurrence unfolding in the story.
