Shloka 206
विधूमो दृश्यते राजंस्तथा पार्थो धनंजय: । राजन्! जैसे चराचर जगत्को दग्ध करके भगवान् अग्निदेव धूमरहित देखे जाते हैं, उसी प्रकार कुन्तीकुमार अर्जुन भी देदीप्यमान हो रहे थे
vidhūmo dṛśyate rājan tathā pārtho dhanañjayaḥ | rājan! yathā carācarajagat dagdhvā bhagavān agnidevaḥ dhūmarahitaḥ dṛśyate, tathā kuntīkumāra arjuno 'pi dedīpyamāna āsīt |
ସଞ୍ଜୟ କହିଲେ—ହେ ରାଜନ୍! ଧୂମରହିତ ଭାବେ ପାର୍ଥ ଧନଞ୍ଜୟ ଦୃଶ୍ୟ ହେଉଥିଲେ। ଯେପରି ଚରାଚର ଜଗତକୁ ଦଗ୍ଧ କରି ଭଗବାନ ଅଗ୍ନିଦେବ ଧୂମରହିତ ଭାବେ ଦେଖାଯାନ୍ତି, ସେପରି କୁନ୍ତୀପୁତ୍ର ଅର୍ଜୁନ ମଧ୍ୟ ଶୁଦ୍ଧ ଦହନ-ତେଜରେ ଦେଦୀପ୍ୟମାନ ଥିଲେ।

The verse uses Agni as a moral-psychological image: when power is aligned with a clear purpose, it appears ‘smokeless’—pure, unobstructed, and awe-inspiring. Arjuna’s radiance signifies focused valor and righteous resolve in the midst of war.
Sanjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that Arjuna is visibly blazing on the battlefield. He compares Arjuna’s appearance to the Fire-god who, after consuming the world, is seen without smoke—emphasizing Arjuna’s overwhelming, purified martial energy.
