Educational Q&A
The verse warns, through vivid metaphor, that anger functions like poison: when it dominates a warrior, it amplifies lethality and undermines self-restraint, thereby threatening dharma even amid the duties of war.
Sañjaya describes a combatant charging into battle with terrifying intensity, likening his bow and arrows to a serpent’s open mouth, teeth, and fangs to emphasize imminent danger and ferocity.
