भीमसेनस्य बहुमहारथसंयुगः
Bhīmasena’s Engagement with Multiple Mahārathas
अदर्शयद् वासुदेवो हययाने परं बलम् | मोघान् कुर्वज्शरांस्तस्य मण्डलानि निदर्शयन्,भगवान् श्रीकृष्णने घोड़ोंके हाँकनेकी कलामें अपनी अद्भुत शक्ति दिखायी। वे भाँति- भाँतिके पैंतरे दिखाते हुए भीष्मके बाणोंको व्यर्थ करते जा रहे थे
sañjaya uvāca | adarśayad vāsudevo hayayāne paraṁ balam | moghān kurvañ śarāṁs tasya maṇḍalāni nidarśayan |
अदर्शयद् वासुदेवो हययाने परं बलम् । मोघान् कुर्वञ् शरांस्तस्य मण्डलानि निदर्शयन् ॥

Educational Q&A
Even amid righteous conflict, excellence in one’s duty (here, Kṛṣṇa’s charioteering) becomes a means of protection and restraint: skill guided by higher purpose can neutralize harm without abandoning dharma.
Sañjaya describes Kṛṣṇa’s masterful chariot-driving: by circling and maneuvering, he causes Bhīṣma’s volleys to miss or lose effect, safeguarding Arjuna during the intense fighting.
