Educational Q&A

Power succeeds when aligned with right order and proper roles. The verse highlights disciplined coordination—assigning each force its function—so that action becomes effective and purposeful rather than chaotic.

Śiva, after arranging the divine apparatus of battle and appointing Brahmā as charioteer, releases a specially described arrow (three-jointed, three-barbed) and pierces the three cities (Tripura), destroying them.
