Bhīmasena’s Discourse on Kāla, Resolve, and the Feasibility of Ajñātavāsa (भीमसेनस्य कालोपदेशः)
यामवाप्य महाबाहुरर्जुन: साधयिष्यति । अस्त्रहेतोरममहिन्द्रं च रुद्रे चैवाभिगच्छतु,“जिसे तुमसे पाकर महाबाहु अर्जुन अपना सब कार्य सिद्ध करेंगे। पाण्डुनन्दन! ये अर्जुन दिव्यास्त्रोंकी प्राप्तिके लिये देवराज इन्द्र, रुद्र, वरुण, कुबेर तथा धर्मराजके पास जायँँ। ये अपनी तपस्या और पराक्रमसे देवताओंको प्रत्यक्ष देखनेमें समर्थ होंगे
yām avāpya mahābāhur arjunaḥ sādhayiṣyati | astrahetor mama mahendram ca rudre caivābhigacchatu ||
毗耶娑说道：“得此之后，臂力无双的阿周那将成就一切所愿。为求天界神兵，当令他前往我至高的主宰因陀罗处，也当往见鲁陀罗。凭其苦行与英勇，他将能亲见诸神。”
