रणभूमिवर्णनम् — Devāsuropama-yuddha and the ‘River’ Metaphor of the Battlefield
त्रिधा भूता महाराज तव सैन्यमुपाद्रवन् । महाराज! शत्रुओंका दमन करनेवाले महाधनुर्थर पाण्डव भी सेनाका व्यूह बनाकर तीन भागोंमें विभक्त हो आपकी सेनापर चढ़ आये
tridhā bhūtā mahārāja tava sainyam upādravan |
サञ्जयは言った。「大王よ、汝の軍はパーンダヴァらに襲われた。彼らは戦陣（ヴ्यूーハ）を結び、三隊に分かれて進み出で、敵を粉砕せんとした—戦の苛烈な要請のただ中で、規律ある力と断固たる意志をもって戦いを押し進めたのである。」

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights disciplined action in a righteous conflict: organized effort (vyūha and division into three) is portrayed as essential to fulfilling kṣatriya duty, where strategy and resolve operate within the larger frame of dharma and the grave ethics of war.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the Pāṇḍavas formed a battle-array, split into three divisions, and launched an assault on the Kaurava host, intensifying the engagement through coordinated attack.
