Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s Anxiety and Bhīṣma’s Theological Explanation of Pāṇḍava Invincibility

Book 6, Chapter 61

तथैव पाण्डवानां च रक्षित: सव्यसाचिना । नाभिद्यत महाव्यूहो भीमेन च सुरक्षित:,इसी तरह सव्यसाची अर्जुन और भीमसे सुरक्षित पाण्डवोंके महाव्यूहका भी भेदन न हो सका

tathaiva pāṇḍavānāṃ ca rakṣitaḥ savyasācinā | nābhidyata mahāvyūho bhīmena ca surakṣitaḥ ||

అదేవిధంగా సవ్యసాచి అర్జునుడు మరియు భీముడు కాపాడుతున్న పాండవుల మహావ్యూహం కూడా భేదింపబడలేదు.

Educational Q&A

Strength in dharmic struggle is not only personal prowess but coordinated protection and disciplined formation; steadfast guardianship by capable leaders prevents collapse even under intense assault.

Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that, just as one side’s array resisted penetration, the Pāṇḍavas’ great formation too remained unbroken because Arjuna and Bhīma effectively guarded it.
