The immeasurable teacher of the worlds, the Lord of the world, the everlasting Narayana, the divine protector in battle, whose very essence is divine, the all-powerful Lord — whose divine deeds the wise proclaim — those deeds I shall glorify with devotion, for the steadfastness of my own spirit.

The long road of grief and fear brings the blind king to the one and only support — to Narayana, 'the everlasting Lord of the worlds.' Finding no comfort in the roll-call of heroes, he turns to the Source of their strength and resolves to glorify, 'with devotion,' the divine deeds of Krishna — 'for the steadfastness of his own spirit.' Here is the true way out of despair: not in reckoning up forces, not in lamentation, but in turning to God and glorifying Him. It is significant that the motive named is 'devotion' (bhakti): only reverent surrender of oneself to the Lord gives the heart a firmness that neither wealth nor an army can give. The verse teaches that it is not calculation but devotion to the Supreme that leads one out of the abyss of grief; that glorifying the Lord's divine deeds is a medicine that heals the very heart; and that even Dhritarashtra, having reached the edge, perceives at last: the one unshakeable support is Narayana, and it is to Him that a spirit seeking steadfastness turns.
