Shloka 106

Devanagari script

अयुध्येतां सुसंरब्धौ कृतप्रतिकृतैषिणौ । फिर ताल ठोंकनेकी भयंकर आवाजसे परस्पर त्रास उत्पन्न करते हुए वे दोनों योद्धा बड़े रोषसे युद्ध करने लगे। दोनों ही एक-दूसरेके प्रहारका प्रतीकार करना चाहते थे | १०५ श्‌ “3 ततो विस्फार्य सुमहच्चापं रुक्मविभूषितम्‌,तत्पश्चात्‌ सुवर्णभूषित विशाल धनुषको खींचकर निकटसे बाणोंकी वर्षा करते हुए भीमसेनकी ओर अभश्व॒त्थामाने देखा। वह शरद-ऋतुके मध्याह्नकालमें प्रचण्ड किरणोंवाले सूर्यदेवके समान प्रकाशित हो रहा था

Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

The verse highlights how anger and the desire to retaliate can dominate the mind in conflict: when each side seeks only a counterblow, violence self-perpetuates and ethical discernment becomes harder to sustain.

What is happening in the narrative?

Sañjaya describes two warriors locked in combat, both highly enraged and focused on repaying the other’s strike with an answering strike—an intense exchange driven by mutual provocation.
