Translation
Vaiśampāyana said: Then those warriors, with the thunder of their chariots and the whirring roar of their wheels, made all the quarters resound and rushed upon Dhanañjaya (Arjuna). The scene underscores how martial pride and collective momentum can drive men into sudden aggression, setting the stage for Arjuna’s steadfast response amid escalating conflict.
