Bhūriśravas–Sātyaki Saṃvāda and Duel; Arjuna’s Intervention (भूरिश्रवाः–सात्यकि संवादः, युद्धम्, अर्जुन-हस्तक्षेपः)
ततो5परेण भल््लेन पीतेन निशितेन च

ಸಂಜಯನು ಹೇಳಿದನು—ನಂತರ ಅವನು ಹಳದಿ ವರ್ಣದ, ಅತ್ಯಂತ ತೀಕ್ಷ್ಣವಾದ ಮತ್ತೊಂದು ಭಲ್ಲಬಾಣದಿಂದ ಮತ್ತೆ ಪ್ರಹಾರ ಮಾಡಿದನು.
संजय उवाच
Even in a terse battle-line, the implied ethic is kṣatriya-dharma: steadfastness and disciplined execution of one’s role. The emphasis on a second, sharp, well-aimed weapon highlights persistence and precision rather than impulsive violence.
Sañjaya continues the battlefield report: after a prior strike, the warrior follows up immediately with another bhalla-arrow, described as yellow and keen, indicating a renewed, forceful attack in the ongoing combat.
