दुर्योधन–द्रोणसंवादः
Arjuna-vīrya-prasaṃśā and renewed battle formation
पश्य त्वं गर्जितस्यास्य फल मे विप्र सानुगान् । हत्वा पाण्ड्सुतानाजी सहकृष्णान् ससात्वतान्
paśya tvaṃ garjitasyāsya phala me vipra sānugān | hatvā pāṇḍusutān ājau sahakṛṣṇān sasātvātān ||
पश्य त्वं गर्जितस्यास्य फलं मे विप्र सानुगान्। हत्वा पाण्डुसुतान् आजौ सहकृष्णान् ससात्वतान्॥
संजय उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse underscores the ethical idea that arrogant threats and boastful bravado (garjita) are ultimately tested by consequences (phala). In the Mahābhārata’s moral frame, speech that exults in slaughter reveals adharma, and the ‘fruit’ of such pride is meant to be judged against dharma and the tragic cost of war.
Sañjaya addresses a brāhmaṇa and points to the outcome of a warrior’s boast: the claim of having killed the Pāṇḍavas in battle, along with Kṛṣṇa and the Sātvatas. The line functions as a report and a pointed commentary on the grim results and the rhetoric of victory in the Drona Parva war setting.
