Dhṛṣṭadyumna’s advance toward Droṇa and the Sātyaki–Karṇa confrontation
अपूजयन्त त॑ देवा विस्मितास्ते5स्य कर्मभि: । युद्धमें प्रायोपवेशन करनेवाले, इन्द्रके समान पराक्रमी भूरिश्रवाको मारा गया देख सिद्ध, चारण, मनुष्य और देवताओंने उनका गुणगान किया; क्योंकि वे भूरिश्रवाके कर्मोंसे आश्चर्यचकित हो रहे थे
apūjayanta taṁ devā vismitās te ’sya karmabhiḥ |
Sañjaya berkata: Para dewa menghormatinya, takjub oleh perbuatannya. Melihat Bhūriśravas—perkasa laksana Indra—terbunuh ketika menjalani prāyopaveśa (puasa hingga mati) di medan perang, para Siddha, Cāraṇa, manusia, dan para dewa memuji kebajikannya, sebab mereka terpesona oleh kebesaran laku dan tindakannya.

Educational Q&A
Even amid the violence of war, extraordinary self-restraint and steadfastness to a chosen vow can be regarded as morally weighty; such conduct becomes worthy of reverence and remembrance, independent of victory or defeat.
Sañjaya reports that after Bhūriśravas is slain while undertaking prāyopaveśana on the battlefield, celestial beings (Siddhas, Cāraṇas) along with humans and gods extol him, amazed at the greatness of his deeds.
