कृत: सुहद्धिर्भिषजां वरिष्ठै- युधिष्ठिरस्तत्र सुवर्णवर्मा । तत्पश्चात् शिविरमें हितैषी वैद्यशिरोमणियोंने मन्त्र और ओषधियोंद्वारा राजा युधिष्ठिरके शरीरसे बाण निकालकर उन्हें रोगरहित (स्वस्थ) कर दिया; इसलिये वे बड़ी उतावलीके साथ सुवर्णमय कवच धारण करके वहाँ युद्ध देखनेके लिये आये

Disse Sañjaya: Ali, os melhores médicos prestaram serviço amistoso a Yudhiṣṭhira, que estava vestido com armadura dourada. Depois, por boa vontade, aqueles curadores eminentes, por meio de mantras e ervas medicinais, retiraram as flechas do corpo do rei Yudhiṣṭhira e o restauraram à saúde. Por isso, ansioso e atento, ele vestiu uma couraça de ouro e veio para assistir à batalha.

Educational Q&A
Even amid war, dharma expresses itself through compassionate service: skilled healers, motivated by goodwill, restore the wounded king, showing that protection of life and responsible care remain ethical duties alongside martial obligations.
After Yudhiṣṭhira has been wounded, the foremost physicians in the camp use mantras and medicinal remedies to extract the arrows and cure him. Once recovered, he quickly puts on golden armour and comes to watch the ongoing battle.
