Educational Q&A
The verse asserts unwavering confidence that righteous strength and capable guidance make victory certain; it highlights how leadership and loyal service (as a charioteer) are seen as decisive supports in dharmic warfare.
Dāruka speaks to a heroic figure addressed as “puruṣavyāghra,” declaring that the person for whom this hero has become charioteer cannot be defeated, because such support guarantees success.
