Educational Q&A
The verse shows how accumulated suffering and perceived injustice can become a powerful inner fuel for action; ethically, it invites reflection on whether one fights from personal resentment or from disciplined duty, since the former can cloud judgment even in a righteous cause.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that Bhīma, recalling many past sorrows and wrongs, enters combat with Karṇa, intensifying the duel with personal and historical grievance.
