भीमसेनस्य बहुमहारथसंयुगः
Bhīmasena’s Engagement with Multiple Mahārathas
दारयन्निव पद्धयां स जगतीं जगदी श्वर: । क्रोधताम्रेक्षण: कृष्णो जिघांसुरमितद्युति:
sañjaya uvāca | dārayann iva padhyāṃ sa jagatīṃ jagadīśvaraḥ | krodhatāmrekṣaṇaḥ kṛṣṇo jighāṃsur amitadyutiḥ ||
قال سنجيا: إنّ كريشنا، ربَّ الكون، ذا البهاء الذي لا يُقاس، وقد احمرّت عيناه من الغضب، تقدّم وهو يريد قتل بيشما—بقوةٍ جعلت الأرض كأنها تنشقّ تحت دويّ خطواته.

Dharma is not mere passivity: when injustice threatens the righteous, even restraint can yield to decisive action. Kṛṣṇa’s wrath here is portrayed as protective and dharma-oriented—an ethical intensity aimed at preventing adharma from prevailing.
Sañjaya describes Kṛṣṇa surging forward in anger, intent on killing Bhīṣma; his steps are so powerful that the earth seems to裂. This belongs to the episode where Kṛṣṇa, seeing Arjuna hard-pressed by Bhīṣma, moves to intervene directly.
