Ramanuja's Gita Bhashyam - Chapter 2 - sloka 6


The entire content of this post is from Swami Chidbhavananda's translation of  The Bhagavad Gita, published by Ramakrishna Mission.


Chapter 2 - Samkhya Yoga - Sloka 6

Na cha etat vidhyah katrat nah gariyah yad va jayem yadi va nah jayeyuh I
yaan eva hatva na jijivishamah te ava sthitah pramukhe dhartharashtrah II sloka 6
न च एतत् विद्यः katrat नः गरीयः यद् वा जयेम यदि वा नः जयेयु ।
यान एव हत्वा न जिजीविषामः ते अव स्थिताः प्रमुखे धार्तराष्ट्राः ।। श्लोक 6


We do not know, which of the two is better for us - whether our vanquishing them or their vanquishing us. The very sons of Dhritarashtra, whom if we slay, we should not wish to live, even they are standing in array against us.
