The verse highlights how krodha (anger) can intensify violence even in a dharma-framed war; it invites reflection on the moral weight of battlefield actions and the inner states that propel them.
Sañjaya reports that Arjuna, enraged, shoots down five hundred armed Gandhāra fighters with his arrows, metaphorically ‘sending’ them to Mṛtyuloka—signaling a decisive, lethal surge in the fighting.
