sa cāpi samyak praṇidhāya śikṣāṃ śastrāṇi caiṣāṃ vidhivat pradāya | tavātmajānāṃ ca tathābhimanyoḥ parākramais tuṣyati raukmiṇeyaḥ ||
Vaiśampāyana said: Having applied himself properly to their training and having duly bestowed various weapons upon them according to rule, the son of Rukmiṇī (Pradyumna) remains greatly pleased, seeing the valor of your sons and of Abhimanyu.
वैशम्पायन उवाच
Martial power should be grounded in disciplined training and the lawful, rule-bound bestowal of weapons; true valor is recognized when skill is cultivated properly and used within dharmic bounds.
Vaiśampāyana reports that Pradyumna (son of Rukmiṇī) has carefully trained the youths and duly given them weapons; he is pleased on witnessing the prowess of the listener’s sons and of Abhimanyu.
