Educational Q&A
Competent leadership in dharmic conflict requires disciplined preparation and adherence to proven counsel: the army is arranged at dawn by a commander skilled in formations, following an authoritative method (attributed to Bṛhaspati), and the foremost warrior is positioned where responsibility is greatest.
After Yudhiṣṭhira’s prior instruction, Dhṛṣṭadyumna organizes the Pandava forces into a battle-array before sunrise, using the formation-method associated with Bṛhaspati, and he stations Arjuna at the head of the combined troops.
