Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how, in war, collective momentum and martial fervor can override counsel and command. Ethically it warns that leadership requires not only issuing restraint but also ensuring discipline—otherwise impulsiveness drives actions with grave consequences.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that certain warriors, even though Duryodhana tried to stop them, rushed forward when they saw the Pāṇḍava forces deployed all around, pressing into the fight with haste.
