Drauṇi) and Dhṛṣṭadyumna (Pārṣata
तानि दुःखान्यनेकानि विप्रकारांश्व सर्वशः । हृदि कृत्वा महाबाहुर्भीमो5युध्यत सूतजम्,अनेक बार दिये गये उन दुःखों और सम्पूर्ण अपकारोंको मनमें रखकर महाबाहु भीमसेनने सूतपुत्र कर्णके साथ युद्ध किया है
tāni duḥkhāny anekāni viprakārāṁś ca sarvaśaḥ | hṛdi kṛtvā mahābāhur bhīmo ’yudhyata sūtajam ||
サञ्जयは言った。幾多の苦しみと、あらゆる不当の仕打ちを胸に刻み、剛腕のビーマは御者の子カルナと戦った。この偈は、積もる怨みと不正の記憶が戦の決意をいっそう燃え立たせる一方で、私怨を離れて行為すべしというダルマの理想と緊張関係にあることを示している。

Educational Q&A
The verse shows how accumulated suffering and perceived injustice can become a powerful inner fuel for action; ethically, it invites reflection on whether one fights from personal resentment or from disciplined duty, since the former can cloud judgment even in a righteous cause.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that Bhīma, recalling many past sorrows and wrongs, enters combat with Karṇa, intensifying the duel with personal and historical grievance.
