Droṇa’s Withdrawal, Death, and the Kaurava Rout (द्रोणनिधन-प्रसङ्गः)
तयो: प्रभा: पृथिवीमन्तरिक्षं सर्वा व्यतिक्रम्य दिशश्व वृद्धा:
tayoḥ prabhāḥ pṛthivīm antarikṣaṃ sarvā vyatikramya diśaś ca vṛddhāḥ
Sañjaya berkata: Cahaya kedua-duanya membesar begitu hebat sehingga, melampaui bumi dan ruang angkasa di antaranya, ia merebak melintasi segala penjuru arah.
संजय उवाच
The verse uses cosmic scale to show how unchecked martial power and anger can dominate the moral and physical landscape, reminding the listener that war magnifies human energies beyond normal bounds and can eclipse ordinary duties and peace.
Sañjaya describes the overwhelming brilliance/energy of two principal combatants (implied by 'those two'), whose radiance seems to expand past earth and the atmosphere, filling all directions—signaling an intense, climactic confrontation.
