The Eternal Self and Selfless Action
सञ्जय उवाच तं तथा कृपयाऽविष्टमश्रुपूर्णाकुलेक्षणम्। विषीदन्तमिदं वाक्यमुवाच मधुसूदनः
sañjaya uvācha taṁ tathā kṛipayāviṣhṭamaśhru pūrṇākulekṣhaṇam viṣhīdantamidaṁ vākyam uvācha madhusūdanaḥ
Sanjaya then told how the Lord Shri Krishna, seeing Arjuna overwhelmed with compassion, his eyes dimmed with flowing tears and full of despondency, consoled him:
sañjayaḥ uvācha—Sanjay said · tam—to him (Arjun) · tathā—thus · kṛipayā—with pity · āviṣhṭam—overwhelmed · aśhru-pūrṇa—full of tears · ākula—distressed · īkṣhaṇam—eyes · viṣhīdantam—grief-stricken · idam—these · vākyam—words · uvācha—said · madhusūdanaḥ—Shree Krishn, slayer of the Madhu demon
