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 ||
সঞ্জয়ে ক’লে—জগতৰ অধীশ্বৰ, অমিত তেজস্বী শ্ৰীকৃষ্ণ ক্ৰোধে ৰক্তচক্ষু কৰি ভীষ্মক বধ কৰাৰ সংকল্পে আগবাঢ়িল; তেওঁৰ পদাঘাতৰ গর্জনত যেন পৃথিৱী বিদীর্ণ হ’বলৈ ধৰিলে।

Educational Q&A
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.
