Dijo Sañjaya: Tras dar muerte a aquel cuerpo de elefantes, el poderosísimo Bhīmasena volvió a montar su carro y avanzó hacia la retaguardia de Arjuna, regresando para sostenerlo en el apremio de la batalla.

Educational Q&A
Power should serve dharma and responsibility: Bhīma’s strength is directed to remove a battlefield threat and then promptly return to protect and support Arjuna, emphasizing disciplined courage and loyalty rather than reckless aggression.
Sañjaya reports that Bhīma destroys an enemy elephant-division and then remounts his chariot, moving to Arjuna’s rear—positioning himself to reinforce Arjuna amid the ongoing combat.
