Translator:
I desire not victory, O Krishna, nor kingdom, nor pleasures.
What use is dominion to us, O Krishna, or pleasures or even life?
A Reading - Rantideb
His questioning of the value of victory or kingdom is a fundamental re-evaluation of his core objectives. The reward no longer justifies the required process.
