Educational Q&A
The verse underscores disciplined competence in action: Arjuna’s swift countering of incoming arrows and his purposeful movement reflect kṣatriya-dharma—acting with skill, alertness, and resolve in a righteous duty-bound struggle, rather than with panic or aimless violence.
Sanjaya narrates that Arjuna neutralizes the opponents’ arrows with his own rapid shots and then advances from one point to another, taking on various elite chariot-warriors (mahārathas) across the battlefield.
