Educational Q&A
The verse highlights coordinated action and steadfast performance of one’s chosen duty in a crisis. Ethically, it also reflects the Mahābhārata’s recurring tension: even revered relationships (like teacher and student) can be overridden when one enters adharma-laden warfare, compelling opponents to respond with disciplined force.
Sañjaya reports that Arjuna takes the right flank and Bhīma the northern side, and the two of them together unleash heavy volleys of arrows at Droṇa (called Bhāradvāja), pressing him from coordinated positions on the battlefield.
