ततो योगबल कृत्वा सर्वयोगेश्वरेश्वर: । त॑ं यज्ञं स महातेजा भीमैरनुचरैस्तदा
tato yogabalaṃ kṛtvā sarvayogeśvareśvaraḥ | taṃ yajñaṃ sa mahātejā bhīmair anucaraiḥ tadā
પછી યોગબળનો આશ્રય લઈને, સર્વ યોગેશ્વરોના પણ ઈશ્વર એવા મહાતેજસ્વી પ્રભુ, ભયંકર અનુચરો સાથે તે સમયે તે યજ્ઞકાર્યમાં પ્રવૃત્ત થયો।

Educational Q&A
The verse links outer religious action (yajña) with inner discipline (yoga): legitimate authority and effective leadership are portrayed as grounded in self-mastery and spiritual strength, not merely in ceremony or force.
Bhishma describes a powerful figure who, after employing yogic power, proceeds to conduct a particular sacrifice, surrounded by a formidable retinue—highlighting both spiritual capability and the public, organized nature of the ritual act.
