Shloka 33
वर्जयन् सर्वसैन्यानि त्वरते हि धनंजय: । त्वदर्थमिति मन्ये5हं यथास्योदीर्यते वपु:
varjayan sarvasainyāni tvarate hi dhanañjayaḥ | tvadartham iti manye ’haṃ yathāsyodīryate vapuḥ ||
“தனஞ்சயன் எல்லாச் சேனைகளையும் கடந்து உண்மையிலேயே விரைந்து வருகிறான். அவன் உடலில் எழும் அந்த உந்துதலைக் கண்டால்—உன் பொருட்டே, உன்னை அடைய அவன் அவசரமாகப் பாய்கிறான் என்று நான் எண்ணுகிறேன்।”

The verse highlights single-pointed resolve in a dharmic crisis: a warrior’s focus can narrow to a decisive duty—protecting or reaching a specific person—so strongly that surrounding forces become secondary. Ethically, it underscores loyalty and purposeful action rather than scattered aggression.
The speaker observes Arjuna’s intense bodily agitation and interprets it as a sign of urgency: Arjuna is bypassing the broader clash of armies and moving swiftly toward the addressed person, driven by a specific intent ‘for your sake.’
