Educational Q&A
The verse presents martial power as purposeful and discerning: Bhīma’s strength is portrayed as controlled effectiveness, suggesting that even in war, action should be directed and skillful rather than chaotic.
Sañjaya describes Bhīma roaming the battlefield and crushing enemy elephants with his mace, likening his decisive prowess to Indra (Vāsava).
