Sañjaya berkata: “Sang pahlawan, limbung laksana orang mabuk, dalam sekejap bangkit kembali. Dan Bhīma pun—yang berlengan perkasa—tampak berdiri dengan gada di tangannya.”

Educational Q&A
Even when shaken or momentarily overwhelmed, a warrior committed to dharma regains composure quickly and returns to rightful duty; steadiness after disorientation is portrayed as a mark of strength.
Sañjaya describes a rapid recovery on the battlefield: a hero who had become unsteady like an intoxicated person rises again in an instant, and Bhīma is then seen ready with his mace, indicating renewed readiness to fight.
