The verse highlights steadfast courage and collective resolve in the face of danger. By comparing warriors’ cries to monsoon thunder, it suggests that martial energy can gather irresistibly—yet it also hints at the ethical weight of war, where duty-driven valor can unleash consequences as powerful as a storm.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the warriors on the battlefield are repeatedly roaring—battle-cries rising and rolling like thunderous rain-clouds—signaling intensifying combat and heightened morale or fury on the field.
