Sandhi Notes
Educational Q&A
Even in warfare, ethical responsibility includes restraint: when clarity returns, a leader should prevent unnecessary violence and reassert control over his forces.
Droṇa, having regained consciousness, immediately orders his own troops/formations to stop or withdraw from fighting, and Sañjaya reports this action.
