Ulūka’s Provocation and Keśava’s Counter-Message (उलूकदूत्ये केशवप्रत्युत्तरम्)
क्रोधो बल॑ तथा वीर्य ज्ञानयोगो<स्त्रलाघवम् | इह ते दृश्यतां पार्थ युद्धयस्व पुरुषो भव,'पार्थ! यहाँ लोग तुम्हारे क्रोध, बल, वीर्य, ज्ञानयोग और अस्त्र चलानेकी फुर्ती आदि गुणोंको देखें। युद्ध करो और अपने पुरुषत्वका परिचय दो
krodho balaṁ tathā vīryaṁ jñānayogo 'stralāghavam | iha te dṛśyatāṁ pārtha yudhyasva puruṣo bhava ||
Sañjaya said: “Let your wrath, strength, valor, disciplined insight, and swift mastery in the use of weapons be seen here, O Pārtha. Fight, and prove yourself a true man.”

Educational Q&A
The verse urges a kṣatriya to manifest courage and competence: anger and strength must be harnessed with disciplined understanding (jñāna-yoga) and skilled weaponry, so that action in war becomes a conscious fulfillment of duty rather than mere impulse.
Sañjaya reports an exhortation addressed to Pārtha (Arjuna), calling him to enter battle and display his known qualities—valor, power, strategic insight, and martial dexterity—so that his manliness and warrior-duty are publicly affirmed.
