Arjuna Visada Yoga

अर्जुनविषादयोग

काश्यश्च परमेष्वासः शिखण्डी च महारथः | धृष्टद्युम्नो विराटश्च सात्यकिश्चापराजितः ||१-१७||

kāśyaśca parameṣvāsaḥ śikhaṇḍī ca mahārathaḥ . dhṛṣṭadyumno virāṭaśca sātyakiścāparājitaḥ ||1-17||

In plain words

This calls you to stand strong alongside those who fight for righteousness, which is your dharma, or sacred duty. Just as these mighty warriors assembled to face darkness, you must gather your inner strength. Do not let maya, the illusion of fear and separation, weaken your resolve when it is time to take action.

Translation

1.17 And the King of Kasi the supreme bowman, Sikandi the mighty warrior, Dhrstadyumna and Virata; and Satyaki the invincible;
