The verse reflects the harsh ethical landscape of dharma-yuddha: a warrior, bound to his role and the momentum of battle, executes his duty with decisive force. It highlights how martial excellence, when aligned with one’s station, becomes the means by which life-and-death outcomes unfold.
Sañjaya reports that the warrior described as ‘parantapa’ uses another sharp bhalla-arrow to strike down Durvimocana, effectively killing him and sending him to the realm of Death.
