Nārāyaṇāstra-utpātaḥ — Aśvatthāman’s Rallying Roar after Droṇa’s Fall (द्रोणपर्व, अध्याय १६७)
शैनेयं शरवर्षाणि विकिरन्तं समन्तत: । अभ्ययात् कौरवो राजन भूरि: संग्राममूर्थनि,राजन! युद्धके मुहानेपर चारों ओर बाणोंकी बौछार करते हुए शिनिपौत्र सात्यकिपर कुरुवंशी भूरिने धावा किया
śaineyaṁ śaravarṣāṇi vikirantaṁ samantataḥ | abhyayāt kauravo rājan bhūriḥ saṅgrāmamūrdhani ||
সঞ্জয়ে ক’লে—হে ৰাজন! যুদ্ধৰ শীৰ্ষত চাৰিওফালে শৰবৃষ্টি ছটিয়াই থকা শৈনেয় (সাত্যকি)ৰ ওপৰত কৌৰৱ বীৰ ভূৰিয়ে ধাৱা কৰিলে।

The verse highlights kṣatriya-dharma in its battlefield form: steadfastness and courage amid danger. Ethically, it underscores how martial excellence and resolve intensify conflict, reminding the listener that war magnifies both valor and the tragic momentum of violence.
Sātyaki (Śaineya) is dominating the field by releasing arrows in all directions. In response, the Kaurava warrior Bhūri rushes to confront him at the fiercest point of the battle.
