Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how attachment to victory and ego can distort judgment: Duryodhana feels joy at an enemy’s isolation, reflecting a war-minded ethic that prioritizes advantage over dharmic reflection and compassion.
On the battlefield, Duryodhana points out that Bhima has become separated from his allies (the Pandavas and Srinjayas) and is now encircled by Kaurava troops; he tells Karna that this situation pleases him.
