Mudgalasya Svarga-nirvedaḥ
Mudgala’s Disenchantment with Heaven
अजुन उवाच उत्सृज्यतां चित्रसेन भ्रातास्माकं सुयोधन: । धर्मराजस्य संदेशान्मम चेदिच्छसि प्रियम्,अर्जुन बोले--चित्रसेन! दुर्योधन हमलोगोंका भाई है। यदि तुम मेरा प्रिय करना चाहते हो तो धर्मराजके आदेशसे इसे छोड़ दो
arjuna uvāca utsṛjyatāṃ citrasena bhrātāsmākaṃ suyodhanaḥ | dharmarājasya saṃdeśān mama ced icchasi priyam ||
阿周那说道：“放了苏约陀那（难敌），噢，奇特罗塞那！他是我们的兄弟。若你愿做令我欢喜之事，就依照法王（坚战）的讯息，将他释放。”

Educational Q&A
Even amid hostility, dharma can require restraint and protection of kin: Arjuna urges the release of Duryodhana not out of approval, but because family bonds and Yudhiṣṭhira’s righteous directive should not be violated, and because humiliating a fallen foe can be ethically improper.
In the Vana Parva episode where Gandharvas confront the Kauravas, Arjuna addresses Chitrasena and requests that Duryodhana (Suyodhana) be released, citing that he is their brother and invoking Dharmarāja Yudhiṣṭhira’s message as the guiding instruction.
