Ghaṭotkaca Slays Alāyudha (Night Battle and Māyā Countermeasures) / घटोत्कचेन अलायुधवधः
इमानि पाण्डवानां च सृज्जयानां च भारत । अनीकान्याद्रवन्ते मां सहितान्यद्य भारत,भारत! वह देखो, पाण्डवों और सूंजयोंकी सेनाएँ एक साथ मिलकर इस समय मुझपर चढ़ी आ रही हैं
imāni pāṇḍavānāṁ ca sṛñjayānāṁ ca bhārata | anīkāny ādravante māṁ sahitāny adya bhārata ||
サञ्जयは言った。「バーラタよ、見よ――パーンダヴァとスリンジャヤの軍勢が、今日ひとつに結ばれ、まっすぐに我へと突進して来る。」

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the moral and practical weight of unity in a righteous cause: allied forces acting in concert become a decisive power, reminding the listener that outcomes in war are shaped not only by individual valor but by collective resolve and alignment.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the combined Pāṇḍava and Sṛñjaya battle-divisions are advancing rapidly toward him (i.e., toward the Kaurava side he is describing), signaling an imminent clash and a coordinated offensive.
