दुःशासनवधः (Duḥśāsana-vadha) — Bhīma’s vow-fulfillment in combat
संजय कहते हैं--राजन्! तदनन्तर भगवान् श्रीकृष्णद्वारा सावधानीसे संचालित और शत घोड़ोंसे युक्त उत्तम रथपर खड़े हुए श्रीमान् अर्जुन वहाँ आ पहुँचे ।।
sañjaya uvāca—rājan! tadanantaraṁ bhagavatā śrīkṛṣṇena sāvadhānena sañcālitaṁ śata-hayair yuktaṁ rathottamaṁ samāruhya śrīmān arjunaḥ tatra samupāgamat. tad balaṁ nṛpatiśreṣṭha tāvakaṁ vijayo raṇe vyakṣobhayad udīrṇāśvaṁ mahodadhim ivānilaḥ.
Sañjaya disse: Ó rei, depois disso chegou ali o ilustre Arjuna, de pé sobre um excelente carro puxado por cem cavalos e conduzido com cuidadosa atenção pelo Bem-aventurado Senhor Śrī Kṛṣṇa. Ó melhor dos reis! Na batalha, Arjuna—chamado Vijaya—lançou o teu exército em agitação; seus poderosos corcéis irromperam em tumulto, como um vento feroz que revolve e perturba o grande oceano.

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the ethical and strategic ideal of guided power: Arjuna’s might becomes effective and disciplined because it is directed with careful control by Kṛṣṇa. Strength in a dharma-oriented conflict is portrayed not as reckless force but as force governed by right guidance and steadiness.
Sanjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that Arjuna arrives on a superb chariot driven attentively by Kṛṣṇa. Arjuna’s entry and momentum shake the Kaurava ranks, compared to a strong wind churning the ocean.
