पुनर्युद्धाय समरे प्रययुर्भीमपार्षतौ । ततो युधिष्ठटिर: प्राह समाहूय स्वसैनिकान्
punar yuddhāya samare prayayur bhīmapārṣatau | tato yudhiṣṭhiraḥ prāha samāhūya svasainikān ||
संजय बोले—भीम और पार्षत (धृष्टद्युम्न) फिर से युद्ध के लिए रणभूमि की ओर बढ़े। तब युधिष्ठिर ने अपने सैनिकों को बुलाकर उनसे कहा—यह व्यवस्था क्रोध की आवेग-प्रेरणा नहीं, बल्कि धर्मानुसार युद्ध-क्रम का सुविचारित नियोजन था।

Educational Q&A
Even amid violence, action is framed by responsibility and command: warriors advance to fight, but the righteous king first gathers and instructs his forces, emphasizing disciplined, duty-oriented conduct rather than uncontrolled aggression.
Bhīma and Pārṣata (Dhṛṣṭadyumna) move forward again to re-engage in combat. Immediately after, Yudhiṣṭhira calls his own soldiers together and begins to address them, indicating a coordinated response in the ongoing battle.
