သဉ္ဇယက ပြောသည်– ဂါဏ္ဍီဝမှ ပစ်လွှတ်သော မြားတို့သည် အင်ဒြ၏ မိုးကြိုးလက်နက်ကဲ့သို့ ထိတွေ့မှုရှိ၍၊ မတားဆီးနိုင်သော အင်အားဖြင့် ထိုးဖောက်ထိခိုက်စေ하였다။

The verse highlights the ideal of resolute action in one’s rightful duty: power is not praised as mere violence, but as disciplined force directed by a warrior’s obligation (kṣatriya-dharma) in a grave moral conflict.
Sañjaya describes the battlefield effect of arrows shot from the Gāṇḍīva, comparing their impact to Indra’s thunderbolt to emphasize their overwhelming, decisive force in the ongoing combat.
