Śaineya’s Breakthrough and Reunion with Arjuna (शैनेयस्य समागमः)
ततोअन्यद् धनुरादाय वेगवत् सुमहास्वनम् । भीमसेनो रणे क्रुद्धो हार्दिक्यं समवारयत्,अपनी शक्तिको कटी हुई देख भीमसेनको बड़ा क्रोध हुआ। उन्होंने बड़ी भारी टंकारध्वनि करनेवाले दूसरे वेगशाली धनुषको हाथमें लेकर समरांगणमें कुपित हो कृतवर्माका सामना किया
tato 'nyad dhanur ādāya vegavat sumahāsvanam | bhīmaseno raṇe kruddho hārdikyaṁ samavārayat ||
তেতিয়া ভীমসেনে আন এটা ধনু তুলিলে—অতি বেগৱান আৰু মহা টংকাৰধ্বনিযুক্ত। ৰণক্ষেত্ৰত ক্ৰুদ্ধ হৈ তেওঁ হাৰ্দিক্য কৃতৱৰ্মাক সন্মুখীন হৈ বাধা দিলে।

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how anger arising from injury or loss can rapidly propel one into confrontation; in the Mahabharata’s war-ethic, a warrior’s duty continues amid such emotions, but the narrative also implicitly warns that wrath can narrow judgment and intensify violence.
After suffering a setback (implied by the context of his weapon being cut or rendered ineffective), Bhima seizes another powerful, loud-twanging bow and, enraged, directly engages Hārdikya—i.e., Kṛtavarman—meeting him in combat and checking his advance.
