तस्मिन् निपतिते भूमौ भीम: क्रुद्धों विशाम्पते
Transliteration
tasmin nipatite bhūmau bhīmaḥ kruddho viśāmpate
Translation
قال سنجيا: لما سقط على الأرض، ثار بهيما غضبًا—يا سيد الرجال—فاندفع بردٍّ عنيف. وتشير هذه العبارة إلى موجة السخط التي تعقب سقوط المحارب في الميدان، مبيّنةً كيف يمكن للحزن والغضب أن يدفعا إلى مزيد من العنف، وأن يختبرا ضبط النفس تحت مطالب الدارما في الحرب.
