दुर्योधन–द्रोणसंवादः
Arjuna-vīrya-prasaṃśā and renewed battle formation
गुरुवृत्तिरता: प्राज्ञा धर्मनित्या यशस्विन: । इनके बलवान् भाई भी सम्पूर्ण अस्त्र-शस्त्रोंकी कलामें परिश्रम किये हुए हैं। वे गुरुसेवापरायण, विद्वान, धर्मतत्पर और यशस्वी हैं
guru-vṛttiratāḥ prājñā dharma-nityā yaśasvinaḥ |
クリパは言った。「彼らは師にふさわしい振る舞いを守り、判断に賢く、ダルマに常住し、名声高い。さらに、その力強き兄でさえ、あらゆる武器と武芸の全域にわたり、規律ある精進によって徹底して鍛え上げられている。彼らは師への奉仕に心を尽くし、学識を備え、正義に帰依し、輝かしい者たちである。」

Educational Q&A
True martial excellence is framed by ethical steadiness: wisdom, constancy in dharma, and disciplined training are praised, but they are explicitly grounded in proper conduct and devotion to one’s teacher (guru-sevā).
In the midst of the Drona Parva’s war narrative, Kṛpa describes certain warriors (and their strong brother) by emphasizing their rigorous weapons-training and, more importantly, their virtues—service to the preceptor, learning, dharma-mindedness, and fame—thereby characterizing them as worthy and well-formed combatants.
