श्लोक (Sanskrit):
निहत्य धार्तराष्ट्रान्नः का प्रीतिः स्याज्जनार्दन।
पापमेवाश्रयेदस्मान्हत्वैतानाततायिनः॥३६॥
तस्मान्नार्हा वयं हन्तुं धार्तराष्ट्रान्स्वबान्धवान्।
स्वजनं हि कथं हत्वा सुखिनः स्याम माधव॥३७॥
---
भावार्थ (Hindi):
अर्जुन ने कहा —
हे जनार्दन! धृतराष्ट्र के पुत्रों को मारकर हमें कौन-सी प्रसन्नता प्राप्त होगी?
इन आततायियों को मारने पर भी हमें पाप ही लगेगा।
इसलिए हे माधव! अपने ही बंधु-बांधव धृतराष्ट्र के पुत्रों को मारना हमारे लिए उचित नहीं है।
अपने ही स्वजनों का वध करके हम कैसे सुखी हो सकते हैं?
---
Meaning (English):
Arjuna said —
O Janardana, what joy would we gain by killing the sons of Dhritarashtra?
Even by killing these aggressors, sin would come upon us.
Therefore, O Madhava, it is not proper for us to kill the sons of Dhritarashtra, our own relatives.
How can we be happy by killing our own kinsmen?
---
Message:
🌿 Arjuna’s reasoning deepens here.
He believes that happiness cannot arise from actions that violate one’s conscience, even if those actions seem justified.
This shows his moral struggle — choosing inner peace over external victory.
---
In short (English):
✨ True happiness cannot be built on the suffering of loved ones.

श्लोक (Sanskrit):
आचार्याः पितरः पुत्रास्तथैव च पितामहाः।
मातुलाः श्रशुराः पौत्राः श्यालाः सम्बन्धिनस्तथा॥३४॥
एतान्न हन्तुमिच्छामि घ्नतोऽपि मधुसूदन।
अपि त्रैलोक्यराज्यस्य हेतोः किं नु महीकृते॥३५॥
---
भावार्थ (Hindi):
अर्जुन ने कहा —
मेरे आचार्य, पिता, पुत्र, पितामह, मामा, ससुर, पौत्र, बहनोई और अन्य अनेक संबंधी —
ये सब युद्धभूमि में उपस्थित हैं।
हे मधुसूदन! मैं इनका वध नहीं करना चाहता,
चाहे वे मुझे मार ही क्यों न दें।
तीनों लोकों का राज्य भी मिले तो भी मैं इन्हें नहीं मार सकता,
तो केवल पृथ्वी के राज्य के लिए तो बिल्कुल नहीं।
---
Meaning (English):
Arjuna said —
My teachers, fathers, sons, grandfathers, uncles, fathers-in-law, grandsons, brothers-in-law,
and many other relatives stand here in this battle.
O Madhusudana! I do not wish to kill them, even if they strike me.
Even for the sovereignty of the three worlds, I would not slay them —
how then for the sake of an earthly kingdom?
---
Message:
🌿 Arjuna’s heart is overwhelmed with compassion.
Seeing his own family members before him, he feels that no victory or reward is worth harming them.
This moment shows how powerful love and relationships are — they can silence even the strongest warrior’s will to fight.
---
In short (English):
✨ Compassion makes even great rewards feel meaningless.
