यदृच्छया चोपपन्नं स्वर्गद्वारमपावृतम् | सुखिनः क्षत्रियाः पार्थ लभन्ते युद्धमीदृशम्
yadṛcchayā copapannaṃ svargadvāramapāvṛtam . sukhinaḥ kṣatriyāḥ pārtha labhante yuddhamīdṛśam
波陀之子啊,幸福的剎帝利才能遇到這種不期而至、敞開天堂之門的戰爭。
O son of Partha, happy are the Ksatriyas who come across this kind of a battle, which presents itself unsought for and which is an open gate to heaven.
經典宣稱,若剎帝利為正義之故在戰場上捐軀,他將立刻升入天堂。
The scriptures declare that if a Kshatriya dies for a righteous cause on the battlefield? he at once goes to heaven.
