भीष्मस्य शरवर्षः — Bhīṣma’s Arrow-Storm and Kṛṣṇa’s Impulse to Intervene
पाण्डवा: समरे शूरा: स्थिता युद्धाय दंशिता: । इस प्रकार शूरवीर पाण्डव भी समरांगणमें अत्यन्त दुर्जय महाव्यूहकी रचना करके कवच बाँध युद्धके लिये तैयार थे
pāṇḍavāḥ samare śūrāḥ sthitā yuddhāya daṃśitāḥ |
Sañjaya dijo: Los Pāṇḍava—valientes en la batalla—se mantuvieron firmes en el campo, plenamente armados y resueltos a la guerra. Tras disponer una gran formación de combate, temible e inexpugnable, y ceñirse la armadura, se prepararon para luchar, encarnando una disciplina vigilante ante las graves exigencias del dharma en el conflicto.
