Transliteration
tataḥ kruddho mahārāja bhaimasenir mahābalaḥ | cakāra bahudhātmānaṃ bhīṣayāṇo mahārathān mahārāja ||
Translation
Sañjaya said: Then, O King, the mighty son of Bhīmasena, inflamed with wrath, assumed many forms, terrifying the great chariot-warriors. The episode underscores how, in the press of war, extraordinary power and illusion can be wielded to break an enemy’s morale—raising ethical tension between strategic necessity and the escalation of fear as a weapon.
