Educational Q&A
Before entering a morally weighty conflict, the warrior seeks alignment with dharma through devotion: acknowledging divine power as both gentle and fearsome, and requesting protection and victory without losing ethical grounding.
Arjuna addresses the Goddess with a series of epithets—Kātyāyanī, Karālī (Kālī), Vijayā, Jayā—praising her as the bearer of a peacock-feather banner and richly adorned, as part of an invocation for support in the impending battle.
