Shloka 4
न समर्थानहं मन्ये गदाहस्तस्य संयुगे | एतेन हि कृता योग्या वर्षाणीह त्रयोदश
na samarthān ahaṃ manye gadāhastasya saṃyuge | etena hi kṛtā yogyā varṣāṇīha trayodaśa
યુદ્ધમાં આ ગદાધારીના સમકક્ષ કોઈ સમર્થ છે એમ હું માનતો નથી; કારણ કે આણે અહીં તેર વર્ષોને યોગ્ય એવા કાર્યો સિદ્ધ કર્યા છે.

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights extraordinary competence in one’s chosen discipline: true mastery can compress what normally takes years into decisive action. Ethically, it also shows how war narratives frame prowess as a form of earned authority and psychological advantage.
Sañjaya, narrating events, declares that no one seems able to stand against a certain mace‑wielder in combat, and he emphasizes the scale of that warrior’s achievements by saying deeds worthy of thirteen years have been accomplished here.
