Shri Purohit Swami

महारथीलोग तुझे भयके कारण युद्धसे उपरत (हटा) हुआ मानेंगे। जिनकी धारणामें तू बहुमान्य हो चुका है, उनकी दृष्टिमें तू लघुताको प्राप्त हो जायगा।

Swami Ramsukhdas

और जिनके लिए तुम बहुत माननीय हो उनके लिए अब तुम तुच्छता को प्राप्त होओगे,  वे महारथी लोग तुम्हें भय के कारण युद्ध से निवृत्त हुआ मानेंगे।

Swami Tejomayananda
