Chapter 47: Krauñca-vyūha Deployment and Conch-Signals
Kaurava–Pāṇḍava Readiness
रथस्थान् पुरुषव्याप्रान् पाण्डवानू प्रेक्ष्य पार्थिवा: । धृष्टद्युम्नादय: सर्वे पुनर्जहषिरे तदा,पुरुषसिंह पाण्डवोंको पुनः रथपर बैठे देख धृष्टद्युम्मन आदि राजा बड़े प्रसन्न हुए
rathasthān puruṣavyāprān pāṇḍavānū prekṣya pārthivāḥ | dhṛṣṭadyumnādayaḥ sarve punar jahaṣire tadā ||
サンジャヤは言った。パーンダヴァ――獅子のごとき男たち――が再び戦車に座し、行動の備えを整えたのを見て、ドリシュタデュムナをはじめ諸王はまたも歓喜した。この瞬間は、ダルマの側に勇気と決意がよみがえる徴であり、戦士たちが戦場における定めの務めへと立ち返ることを示していた。

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the ethical dimension of steadfastness in one’s appointed duty: when righteous warriors regain readiness and composure, it strengthens collective morale and supports the pursuit of dharma even amid fear and uncertainty.
Sañjaya reports that the allied kings led by Dhṛṣṭadyumna become pleased again upon seeing the Pāṇḍavas back on their chariots—visibly prepared to fight—indicating renewed confidence and momentum in the Pāṇḍava camp.
