द्रोणपर्व — पञ्चदशोऽध्यायः (Droṇa Parva, Chapter 15): युधिष्ठिर-रक्षा तथा अर्जुनस्य शरवृष्टिः
न हि मद्राधिपादन्य: सर्वराजसु भारत | सोदुमुत्सहते वेगं भीमसेनस्य संयुगे,भरतनन्दन! समस्त राजाओंमें मद्रराज शल्यके सिवा दूसरा कोई ऐसा नहीं था, जो युद्धमें भीमसेनके वेगको सहनेका साहस कर सके
na hi madrādhipād anyaḥ sarvarājasu bhārata | soḍhum utsahate vegaṃ bhīmasenasya saṃyuge bharatanandana ||
ສັນຊະຍະ ກ່າວວ່າ: «ໂອ ພາຣະຕະ! ໃນບັນດາກະສັດທັງປວງ ບໍ່ມີໃຜອື່ນນອກຈາກ ຊາລະຍະ ເຈົ້າແຫ່ງມັດຣາ ທີ່ກ້າຫານຈະອົດທົນກຳລັງພຸ້ນພາລະຂອງ ພີມະເສນ ໃນສົງຄາມໄດ້, ໂອ ຜູ້ເປັນຄວາມຊື່ນຊົມຂອງວົງພາຣະຕະ!»

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights that extraordinary power (Bhīma’s vega) is matched only by rare fortitude and steadiness (Śalya’s capacity to endure). Ethically, it points to the Kṣatriya ideal of courage under pressure, while also reminding the listener that war magnifies both strength and the exceptional qualities needed to resist it.
Sañjaya, reporting the battlefield to Dhṛtarāṣṭra, emphasizes Bhīmasena’s terrifying momentum in combat and states that among the assembled kings only Śalya of Madra was capable of withstanding that onslaught.
