anujñātās tataḥ sarve suhṛdo dharmasūnunā | tvaramāṇāḥ susaṁnaddhā hṛṣṭā yuddhāya niryayuḥ ||
Translation
Sañjaya said: Then, with the permission of Dharmasūnu (Yudhiṣṭhira), all his well-wishing companions—hastening, fully armoured, and filled with exhilaration—set out from there for battle. The scene underscores disciplined obedience to rightful command and the collective resolve to enter war under dharmic leadership.
