The verse highlights the epic’s ethical-narrative framing: Kṛṣṇa’s outward majesty and Indra-like valor underscore his authority and readiness to guide events toward dharma, especially in the tense lead-up to conflict.
Sañjaya narrates that Kṛṣṇa rises, fully adorned, then sits and begins speaking to him—setting the scene for Kṛṣṇa’s forthcoming counsel or message in the Udyoga Parva’s diplomatic and pre-war context.
