Fallen off from both, is he lost like a separated cloud or not, being as he is without refuge, O thou of mighty arms, and deluded on the path leading to Brahma? This my doubt, O Krishna, it behoveth thee to remove without leaving anything. Besides thee, no dispeller of this doubt is to be had. > — Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa - [Previous: 6.28.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.6.28.38) - [Next: 6.28.40](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.6.28.40) - [Up: 6.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.6.28) ## Translations (2) - [The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa~en-ganguli.6.30.4) — Kisari Mohan Ganguli 1883, English - [Srimad-Bhagavad-Gita](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.all.gita~en-swarupananda.6.39) — Swami Swarupananda 1909, English ## Commentaries (1) - [Bhāratabhāvadīpa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa!nilakantha.6.30.39) — Nīlakaṇṭha Caturdhara 1650, Sanskrit ## Other recensions (2) - [Southern recension](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa*southern.6.30.39) — Sanskrit - [Vulgate (Nīlakaṇṭha's text)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa*vulgate.6.30.39) — Sanskrit ## Linked texts (2) - [Bhagavadgītā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.all.gita.6.39) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit - [Vulgate (700 verses)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.darsana.all.gita*vulgate.6.39) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.6.28.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa.6.28.39) · Pramāṇa
