Dijo Sañjaya: Bhīmasena también, en el campo de batalla, relató con claridad a Keshava (Krishna) y a Arjuna el curso exacto de los hechos—cómo fue muerto Iravan—para que los jefes comprendieran lo ocurrido y respondieran conforme al dharma en medio del peso moral de la guerra.

Even amid war, responsible action depends on truthful, precise reporting of events. Accurate testimony supports dharma by enabling leaders to decide without confusion, rumor, or passion.
On the battlefield, Bhima informs Krishna and Arjuna of the full and accurate account of Iravan’s death, ensuring they understand what has occurred in the ongoing conflict.
