This is your first duty, (namely) to grace the Pandavas and to disgrace Shakuni. O king, if you wish to restore to you sons the good fortune they have lost this speedily act as I say, O king, if you do not act thus, the Kurus will be soon destroyed. For neither Bhimasena nor Arjuna, if angry, will leave any of the enemies unslain. What is there in the world which is unattainable to those who have amongst their warriors Savyasachi Arjuna well-skilled in war, who possesses the Gandiva, the most powerful of all weapons in the world and who have the mighty Bhimasena warrior. I told you formerly as soon as the son was born, “Abandon this inauspicious child of yours. The good of your race is in it (abandoning).” But you did not accept my advice, if you did as I advised to do, you would not have repented. |

O king, all the monarchs of the world then like Vaisyas will pay homage to us. O king, let Duryodhana, Shakuni and Suta's son (Karna) gladly wait upon the sons of Pandu. Let Dushasana ask pardon of Bhimasena and of the daughter of Draupada (Draupadi) in open court. After pacifying Yudhishthira, place him on the throne with all respects. O king, asked by you, who else can I advise? If you do this, you will do what is proper. |
