Śaineya’s Breakthrough and Reunion with Arjuna (शैनेयस्य समागमः)

Devanagari script

भीमसेनं तथा दृष्टवा धर्मराजपुरोगमा: । विसृजन्त: शरान्‌ राजन्‌ कृतवर्माणमार्दयन्‌,राजन! भीमसेनको वैसी अवस्थामें देखकर धर्मराज आदि महारथियोंने बाणोंकी वर्षा करके कृतवर्माको बड़ी पीड़ा दी

Transliteration

bhīmasenaṃ tathā dṛṣṭvā dharmarāja-purogamāḥ | visṛjantaḥ śarān rājan kṛtavarmāṇam ārdayan ||

Translation

Sañjaya said: Seeing Bhīmasena in that condition, the great warriors led by Dharmarāja (Yudhiṣṭhira), O King, poured forth volleys of arrows and grievously afflicted Kṛtavarmā. The scene underscores a dharmic impulse in war: the leaders rally to protect a vulnerable ally and to restrain an aggressor through decisive, collective action.
