“Sanjaya declares that Time creates all things and destroys all creatures, that Time alone is awake when all things are asleep and is incapable of being overcome, and that all things past, future and present are the offspring of Time; having thus administered comfort, he restored Dhritarashtra's mind to peace. (trans. K.M. Ganguli)”
