शोध संदर्भResearch context · not scriptureComparative Research Noteशोध टिप्पणी
हे कृष्ण! मैं न तो विजय चाहता हूँ, न राज्य चाहता हूँ और न सुखों को ही चाहता हूँ। अनुभव तब स्पष्ट होता है जब उसे किसी एक घटना का आकस्मिक संयोग न मानकर एक नियम की तरह देखा जाए। यह पंक्ति उसी नियम को इस प्रसंग में रखती है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
