अध्याय ३: कृपस्य दुर्योधनं प्रति नीत्युपदेशः
Kṛpa’s Counsel to Duryodhana
सूतो हेमपरिच्छन्नान् शनैरश्वानचोदयत् । कुरुराज दुर्योधनके इस श्रेष्ठ वीरोचित वचनको सुनकर सारथिने सोनेके साज-बाजसे ढके हुए अश्वोंको धीरेसे आगे बढ़ाया

Sañjaya said: Hearing those noble, warrior-like words of King Duryodhana, the charioteer gently urged forward the horses, whose harness and trappings were covered with gold, and made them advance slowly in disciplined obedience.

Educational Q&A
Even amid war, action is ideally governed by restraint and role-based duty: the charioteer advances only as directed, slowly and under control, illustrating disciplined execution rather than reckless haste.
After Duryodhana speaks in a heroic manner, his charioteer responds by gently driving forward the gold-adorned horses, moving the chariot ahead in accordance with the king's words.
