Bhagavad Gita · Chapter 1: Arjuna's Despair
Bhagavad Gita 1.5
धृष्टकेतुश्चेकितानः काशिराजश्च वीर्यवान् ।
पुरुजित्कुन्तिभोजश्च शैब्यश्च नरपुङ्गवः ॥
dhṛṣṭaketuścekitānaḥ kāśirājaśca vīryavān | purujitkuntibhojaśca śaibyaśca narapuṅgavaḥ ||
Dhrishtaketu, Chekitana, and the valiant king of Kashi; Purujit, Kuntibhoja, and Shaibya, a bull among men.
Modern context
The roll call continues. Every name here stands for a kingdom that chose a side; a quarrel inside one family has drawn in a whole world. Private disputes seldom stay private.
