Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how inner states—especially a warrior’s roused resolve—shape the moral and practical course of action in war; leaders and heroes must recognize such surges of intensity and respond with disciplined courage rather than confusion or fear.
Sañjaya reports that the leading warriors observe Śaineya (Sātyaki) as he appears intensely stirred and battle-ready, signaling an escalation in the combat situation and drawing the attention of the principal heroes.
