Educational Q&A
The verse highlights dharma as steadfast performance of one’s role: even an ācārya (revered elder) must act decisively in war when duty demands, setting aside personal hesitation.
Sañjaya reports that Gautama, described as an ācārya, again took up combat and fought directly with Dhṛṣṭadyumna, indicating a renewed clash between the two on the battlefield.
