Shloka 22
ततः कुरुषु भग्नेषु बीभत्सुरपराजित:
tataḥ kuruṣu bhagneṣu bībhatsur aparājitaḥ
तेव्हा, कुरूंची सेना भग्न होऊन गोंधळात पडली असता, बीभत्सु (अर्जुन) मात्र अजिंक्यच राहिला—विरोधी रांगा कोसळत असतानाही तो अढळ उभा होता; जणू हेच दर्शवीत की धर्मनिष्ठ दृढनिश्चय सैन्य ढळले तरी टिकून राहतो।

Even amid the chaos of war and the collapse of opposing forces, the verse highlights steadfastness and moral resolve: the righteous warrior remains unshaken and 'unconquered' not merely by strength, but by disciplined purpose and adherence to duty.
Sañjaya reports that the Kuru troops have been broken and routed. In that moment of Kaurava disarray, Arjuna—called Bībhatsu—stands undefeated, indicating his dominance on the battlefield at this stage of the Karṇa Parva.
