धर्मराजस्य चिन्ता, भीमसेनप्रेषणम्, द्रोणानीकप्रवेशप्रयत्नः
Yudhiṣṭhira’s Anxiety and the Dispatch of Bhīma; Attempted Breakthrough into Droṇa’s Formation
गाहमानस्त्वनीकानि तूर्णमश्वानचोदयत् । बलाकाभ तु दाशार्ह: पाउ्चजन्यं व्यनादयत्,सेनाके भीतर घुसते हुए श्रीकृष्णने तीव्र वेगसे अपने घोड़ोंको आगे बढ़ाया और बगुलोंके समान श्वेत रंगवाले अपने पांचजन्य शंखको बड़े जोरसे बजाया
gāhamānas tv anīkāni tūṇam aśvān acodayat | balākābha tu dāśārhaḥ pāñcajanyaṃ vyanādayat ||
Sañjaya berkata: Saat menerobos masuk ke dalam formasi-formasi musuh, Kṛṣṇa sang Dāśārha mendorong kuda-kuda maju dengan cepat, lalu meniup sangkakala Pāñcajanya yang putih laksana kawanan bangau dengan dentuman menggema.

Educational Q&A
In the midst of righteous conflict, effective leadership combines decisive action with clear signals that uphold morale and purpose; Kṛṣṇa’s conch-blast functions as a dharmic proclamation of steadiness and resolve rather than mere aggression.
As the chariot advances into the enemy ranks, Kṛṣṇa quickly drives the horses forward and loudly blows his white Pāñcajanya conch, marking entry into intense combat and rallying the Pāṇḍava side while intimidating opponents.
