Educational Q&A
The verse uses an ethical-tinged simile: the Kaurava forces surge toward Yudhiṣṭhira with the same single-minded urgency as needy petitioners approach a noble benefactor. It highlights how desire (to capture) can drive collective action with intense focus, even in a morally fraught context like war.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the Dhārtarāṣṭra troops—supported by elephants, chariots, and infantry—are advancing to seize Yudhiṣṭhira, pressing in on him with determined intent.
