द्रोणपर्व (अध्याय ११२) — कर्णभीमयोर्युद्धम्, दुर्योधनस्य रक्षणादेशः

Droṇa-parva 112: Karṇa–Bhīma Engagement and Duryodhana’s Protective Order

वर्तमाने तथा रौद्रे तस्मिन्‌ वीरवरक्षये । अशृणोत्‌ सहसा पार्थ: पाउ्चजन्यस्य नि:स्वनम्‌

vartamāne tathā raudre tasmin vīravarakṣaye | aśṛṇot sahasā pārthaḥ pāñcajanyasya niḥsvanam ||

Sañjaya berkata: Ketika pertempuran yang mengerikan itu—yang membawa kebinasaan para wira terunggul—sedang mengganas, Pārtha tiba-tiba mendengar dentuman nyaring sangkakala Pāñcajanya. Di tengah pembantaian dan kekacauan, isyarat yang dikenali sebagai sangkakala Kṛṣṇa menembusi hiruk-pikuk, menandai perubahan tumpuan dan tekad di bawah beban dharma peperangan.

Educational Q&A

Even amid violent conflict and moral strain, clarity can arise through a recognized call to duty and alignment with rightful guidance; the conch-blast symbolizes a decisive summons that steadies intention in the chaos of war.

As the fierce battle continues with heavy hero-slaying, Pārtha suddenly hears the loud blast of Pāñcajanya, Kṛṣṇa’s conch, indicating an important development or rallying signal on the battlefield.
