Educational Q&A
The verse underscores how unchecked martial fury can become all-encompassing: when combat escalates, its effects spread in every direction, symbolically obscuring clarity (the sky) and endangering all around—prompting reflection on restraint and responsibility even within kṣatriya duty.
Sañjaya describes two eminent warriors exchanging such a dense volley that the sky appears covered by an arrow-net, and the entire battlefield space—figuratively the ten directions—seems saturated with arrows.
