कपिश्रेष्ठस्तु पार्थस्य व्यादितास्य इवान्तक: । दंष्टाभिर्भीषयन् भाभिद्दुर्निरी क्ष्यो रविर्यथा
kapiśreṣṭhas tu pārthasya vyāditāsya ivāntakaḥ | daṃṣṭrābhir bhīṣayan bhābhid durnirīkṣyo ravir yathā ||
সঞ্জয়ে ক’লে—পাৰ্থ (অৰ্জুন)ৰ ৰথত কপিশ্ৰেষ্ঠ বহি আছিল; মুখ মেলি থকা অন্তকৰ (যমৰ) দৰে, দন্তেৰে সকলোকে ভয় দেখুৱাইছিল। তাৰ প্ৰভা সূৰ্যৰ দৰে; তাৰ ফালে চোৱা কঠিন আছিল॥

The verse highlights the ethical power of dharmic alliance: when a righteous warrior is supported by divine guardianship (Hanumān), his presence becomes morally and psychologically overwhelming—symbolized by Death-like terror and sun-like radiance—suggesting that inner righteousness and divine favor can decide outcomes beyond mere weaponry.
Sañjaya describes the battlefield sight of Arjuna’s chariot bearing the foremost monkey (Hanumān), portrayed with a gaping mouth and bared fangs, radiating like the sun and terrifying opponents—an omen of formidable protection and strength on Arjuna’s side.
