Adhyāya 108 — Nimitta-darśana and Drona’s counsel amid Arjuna’s advance (निमित्तदर्शनं द्रोणोपदेशश्च)
दशभि: सायकैस्तूर्णमाजघान स्तनान्तरे । नकुल: सहदेवश्न त॑ं सप्तभिरजिह्दगै:,उन्होंने शल्यकी छातीमें तुरंत ही दस बाण मारे तथा नकुल और सहदेवने भी सीधे जानेवाले सात बाणोंद्वारा उन्हें घायल कर दिया
daśabhiḥ sāyakais tūrṇam ājaghāna stanāntare | nakulaḥ sahadevaś ca taṃ saptabhir ajihmagaiḥ ||
သဉ္ဇယက ပြောသည်– သူသည် ရင်ဘတ်အလယ်သို့ မြားဆယ်စင်းဖြင့် လျင်မြန်စွာ ထိုးနှက်လိုက်သည်။ နကူလနှင့် သဟဒေဝတို့လည်း တည့်တည့်ပျံသန်းသည့် မြားခုနစ်စင်းဖြင့် သူ့ကို ထိခိုက်ဒဏ်ရာရစေ하였다။

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights disciplined, purposeful action in a dharmic battlefield context: warriors act with speed, precision, and coordination. Ethically, it reflects the Mahābhārata’s tension—dharma may require fierce action in war, yet such action remains morally weighty and consequential.
Sañjaya reports a rapid exchange of missile warfare: a warrior strikes an opponent in the chest with ten arrows, and Nakula and Sahadeva follow by wounding the same opponent with seven straight-flying arrows, intensifying the combat pressure on that target.
