Shloka 32
तस्यापि च वधोपायं वक्ष्यामि तव पाण्डव । पाण्डुनन्दन! युद्धमें दुर्योधनका भी वध भीमसेन करेंगे। उसके वधका उपाय भी मैं तुम्हें बताऊँगा ।। वर्धते तुमुलस्त्वेष शब्द: परचमूं प्रति
tasyāpi ca vadhōpāyaṁ vakṣyāmi tava pāṇḍava | pāṇḍunandana! yuddhe duryodhanasyāpi vadhaṁ bhīmasenaḥ kariṣyati | tasya vadhasyōpāyam api ahaṃ tvāṁ vaktum icchāmi || vardhate tumulas tv eṣa śabdaḥ paracamūṃ prati ||
Vāyu berkata: “Wahai Pāṇḍava, aku juga akan memberitahumu cara untuk membunuhnya. Wahai putera Pāṇḍu—di medan perang Bhīmasena benar-benar akan menamatkan riwayat Duryodhana; dan aku akan menerangkan kepadamu helah untuk melaksanakan pembunuhan itu. Bahkan sekarang, suatu raungan yang garang dan bergemuruh sedang bangkit menuju barisan musuh.”

Educational Q&A
The verse frames the fall of Duryodhana as both a destined outcome and a matter of tactical means: even when an end is foreseen, it is achieved through concrete human action and strategy, raising the ethical tension of war where dharma is pursued amid violence.
Vāyudeva addresses a Pāṇḍava, announcing that Bhīma will be the slayer of Duryodhana and promising to explain the method for that killing; simultaneously, the battlefield atmosphere intensifies as a loud, tumultuous sound swells toward the enemy ranks.
