Gaining victory, one obtains happiness here. If killed, one reaps great fruits in the other world. You Kauravas, there is no better path to heaven than that of battle. Killed in battle, you will in no time obtain all those regions of blessedness.” Hearing those words of his and applauding them highly, the Kuru kings once more rushed against the Pandavas for fighting with them.
म]नावश्यमर्तव्यं गृहेष्वपि कदाचन। युध्यत: क्षत्रधर्मेण मृत्युरेष सनातनः॥ हत्वेह सुखमाप्नोति हतः प्रेत्य महत् फलम्। न युद्धधर्माच्छ्रेयान् वै पन्थाः स्वर्गस्य कौरवाः॥ अचिरेणैव ताँल्लोकान् हतो युद्धे समश्नुते। श्रुत्वा तद् वचनं तस्य पूजयित्वा च पार्थिवाः॥ पुनरेवाभ्यवर्तन्त पाण्डवानाततायिनः।
