Shloka 60
विवर्धमानमालक्ष्य तदस्त्रं भीमविक्रमम् | पाण्डुसैन्यमृते भीम॑ सुमहद् भयमाविशत्,उस अस्त्रको बढ़ते देख भयंकर पराक्रमी भीमसेनको छोड़कर शेष सारी पाण्डव- सेनापर महान् भय छा गया
vivardhamānam ālakṣya tad astraṁ bhīmavikramam | pāṇḍusainyam ṛte bhīmaṁ sumahad bhayam āviśat |
Voyant cette arme redoutable croître encore en puissance, une grande terreur saisit l’armée des Pāṇḍava—tous, sauf Bhīma, dont la vaillance terrible ne chancela point.

Educational Q&A
Even amid overwhelming danger, steadfast courage grounded in duty can prevent panic from becoming total collapse; one resolute warrior can embody and restore the ethical ideal of kṣatriya-dharma when others are shaken by fear.
A powerful astra is seen intensifying, and terror spreads through the Pāṇḍava forces; only Bhīma remains unafraid, standing firm while the rest of the army is psychologically overwhelmed.
