Educational Q&A
War’s burden is not limited to the battlefield: even the night becomes heavy with anxiety, showing how conflict erodes peace, rest, and moral clarity, while hope for a righteous outcome persists amid suffering.
Sañjaya reports to the king that the night elapsed with great difficulty for the assembled warriors, who were talking among themselves and inwardly wishing for Arjuna’s success, indicating tension and anticipation before the next day’s events.
