Educational Q&A
Even in war, leadership is shown through disciplined encouragement: the king strengthens his forces by rallying morale and unity, channeling emotion (harṣa) into steadfast resolve aligned with dharma rather than panic or cruelty.
Sañjaya reports that Yudhiṣṭhira, uplifted and confident, causes his own army to resound across the battlefield with conch-blasts, the din of arrows, and joyful shouts—signaling readiness and energizing the troops.
