Educational Q&A
The verse underscores the ethical reality that war is not merely strategy and victory; it inevitably produces widespread suffering—cries and tears on all sides—inviting reflection on responsibility, restraint, and the tragic consequences of adharma-driven conflict.
Sañjaya describes the scene as filled everywhere with loud cries and weeping, conveying the immediate aftermath or ongoing intensity of battle where many are overwhelmed by loss and fear.
