Chapter 19: Prativyūha of the Pāṇḍavas — Vajra (Acala) Formation and Dawn Omens
य॑ प्रतिव्यूह्य तिष्ठन्ति पाण्डवास्तव वाहिनीम् | अजेयो मानुषे लोके पाण्डवैरभिरक्षित:
yaḥ prativyūhya tiṣṭhanti pāṇḍavās tava vāhinīm | ajeyo mānuṣe loke pāṇḍavair abhirakṣitaḥ ||
Sanjaya berkata: Formasi tempur yang disusun Pāṇḍava sebagai tandingan atas bala tentaramu, karena dijaga oleh para Pāṇḍava, menjadi tak terkalahkan di dunia manusia.

Educational Q&A
Strength in conflict is not only a matter of numbers but of disciplined formation, capable guardianship, and coordinated resolve; when protected by competent leaders, a well-ordered collective becomes extremely difficult to defeat.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the Pāṇḍavas have drawn up a counter-formation facing the Kaurava host, and that this array—because it is defended by the Pāṇḍavas themselves—appears unconquerable among human warriors.
