Mahabharata — Shalya Parva, Shloka 30
Śalya–Yudhiṣṭhira Duel and the Discharge of the Śakti (शल्यवधप्रसङ्गः)
महता हर्षजेनाथ नादेन कुरुपुड्रवा: | उन कुरुकुलके श्रेष्ठ वीरोंने रोषमें भरकर महान् हर्षनादके साथ वेगशाली वीर मद्रराज शल्यपर धावा किया ।। ह्वादेन गजघण्टानां शड्खानां निनदेन च
mahātā harṣajenātha nādena kurupuṅgavāḥ | tān kurukulake śreṣṭhān vīrān roṣeṇa pūrayitvā mahāharṣanādena saha vegāś ca vīrā madrarājaṃ śalyam abhidadhruvuḥ || hrādena gajaghaṇṭānāṃ śaṅkhānāṃ ninadena ca ||
サンジャヤは言った。「そのときクル族の最上の者たちは、歓喜から生まれた大いなる鬨の声を上げて前へと殺到した。クル家の精鋭の勇士たちを怒りで満たし、俊敏な英雄らは、象の鈴の轟きと法螺貝（シャンク）の響きの中、勝ち鬨の大叫びとともにマドラ王シャリヤへ突撃した。」

Educational Q&A
The verse underscores how powerful collective emotions—joyful exhilaration and wrath—can drive warriors into intensified violence. In Mahābhārata’s ethical frame, such surges of passion (harṣa, roṣa) are potent forces that can eclipse restraint, reminding readers that inner states shape outward action, especially in war.
Sañjaya describes the Kuru champions raising a great roar and, stirring one another’s anger, rushing swiftly to attack Śalya, the king of Madra. The charge is accompanied by the booming of bells on elephants and the blaring of conches, amplifying the battlefield’s tumult.
