Educational Q&A
The verse highlights that divine power (astra) is not merely destructive; when employed in alignment with dharma to restrain violent, disruptive forces, it restores order and brings relief to those committed to protecting the world.
Mātali, the divine charioteer, hears that the ornamented demon-warriors have been crushed by a fearsome Rudra-associated weapon, and he rejoices greatly at this decisive turn in the conflict.
