samāsādya ca bībhatsuḥ saindhavaṁ samupasthitam | netrābhyāṁ krodha-dīptābhyāṁ sampraikṣan nirdahann iva ||

The verse highlights the ethical tension between righteous purpose and uncontrolled anger: even when confronting a grave offender, inner fire (krodha) can threaten discernment. It invites reflection on how duty in war demands firmness, yet warns that wrath can become destructive if it eclipses self-mastery.
Sañjaya describes Arjuna meeting Jayadratha (the Saindhava) directly on the battlefield. Seeing him before him, Arjuna’s eyes blaze with anger and he stares as if to burn him down—signaling the climactic confrontation in the Jayadratha episode within the Drona Parva.
