वैशम्पायन उवाच
Educational Q&A
Excellence and victory arise from coordinated roles: the hero’s valor must be matched by the charioteer’s mastery, composure, and faithful guidance. The verse highlights ethical leadership—recognizing that success is supported by competent allies, not claimed as a solitary achievement.
Vaiśampāyana praises a particular charioteer by recalling that, with his assistance, Arjuna once achieved sweeping victories at Khāṇḍavaprastha. The statement functions as a testimonial to the charioteer’s unmatched capability.
