Educational Q&A
Power in war is not merely physical; it is amplified or restrained by counsel, alliances, and moral-spiritual support. Duryodhana’s remark implicitly acknowledges that Arjuna’s effectiveness is bound to Krishna’s guidance—suggesting the ethical force of right companionship and wise direction.
Sanjaya reports to Dhritarashtra that Duryodhana speaks while observing the battlefield. Duryodhana points out Arjuna (the diadem-wearer), noting that he is acting with Krishna’s support, indicating concern over the combined prowess of Arjuna and Krishna.
