Educational Q&A
The verse highlights dharmic discipline in action: a warrior’s resolve is framed not as personal impulse but as obedience to legitimate command (Dharmarāja’s śāsana) and alignment with a righteous exemplar (Arjuna’s padavī).
Sañjaya reports Sātyaki’s statement of intent: he will proceed along Arjuna’s route/strategy, explicitly because Yudhiṣṭhira has ordered it—signaling coordinated action and loyal compliance within the Pāṇḍava camp during the Drona Parva battles.
