FAQs
The wording is explicitly martial (yuddhe, śatrum, vijeṣyati), so it primarily indicates a literal victory in battle; however, Purāṇic narration often allows a secondary ethical reading—steadfastness and rightful power overcoming even seemingly “unconquerable” obstacles.
Avadhyāḥ literally means “not to be slain.” In Purāṇic idiom it can refer to foes protected by boons, extraordinary defenses, or reputations of being unbeatable—yet the verse asserts they too can be overcome.
Even opponents who appear impossible to defeat (durjayāḥ, avadhyāḥ) can be overcome when events align lawfully (“that conjunction”)—implying that rightful alignment, preparation, and dharmic strength can surpass seemingly fixed limits.
