The verse underscores steadfastness in dharma at the threshold of conflict: the Pāṇḍavas’ conches are not mere signals of war but emblems of disciplined resolve, unity, and confidence in a righteous cause.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that Yudhiṣṭhira, Nakula, and Sahadeva blow their named conches—Anantavijaya, Sughoṣa, and Maṇipuṣpaka—marking the formal commencement and heightened intensity of the Kurukṣetra battle scene.
