Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how war can erode dharma: even the natural obligations of kinship and the respect due to the fallen are overridden by panic and the instinct to survive, revealing the ethical cost of violence.
Sañjaya describes combatants fleeing the battlefield, hastily driving horses and elephants while leaving behind the bodies of their slain brothers, fathers, sons, friends, and other relatives.
