Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the warrior ethic of endurance and response under pressure: when a formidable opponent inflicts harm, a kṣatriya is expected to bear it without collapse and to answer with resolve. It also underscores how displays of power in war test self-control and duty.
Sañjaya reports that Droṇa shoots Sātyaki with six arrows, injuring him along with his horses and charioteer. Sātyaki (also called Yuyudhāna) cannot tolerate this assault and is provoked to respond, intensifying the duel.
