Droṇa-parva Adhyāya 114 — Karṇa–Bhīmasena Missile Exchange, Disarmament, and Arjuna’s Intervention
संहताश्न भशं होते अन्योन्यस्य हितैषिण: । 'ये शूर, विद्वान् तथा धरनुर्वेदमें परिनिष्ठित हैं। इनमें परस्पर बड़ा संगठन है। ये एक-दूसरेका हित चाहनेवाले हैं
saṃhatāś ca bhṛśaṃ hṛṣṭā anyonyasya hitaiṣiṇaḥ | ye śūrā vidvāṃsaś ca tathā dhanurvede pariniṣṭhitāḥ ||
Sañjaya dit : «Ils étaient étroitement unis et débordaient d’ardeur, chacun recherchant le bien de l’autre. Ce sont des héros, des hommes instruits, et solidement accomplis dans la science de l’arc.»

Educational Q&A
Even in a war setting, the verse highlights an ethical ideal of mutual goodwill and cohesion: strength is not merely individual prowess but disciplined unity, learning, and a commitment to one another’s welfare.
Sañjaya describes a group of warriors as tightly organized, highly spirited, mutually supportive, and expertly trained in archery—setting the tone for coordinated martial action in the Drona Parva battle narrative.
