Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how krodha (anger), once it takes hold, intensifies action and can propel a warrior into increasingly forceful violence. In the Mahābhārata’s ethical frame, even within kṣatriya-duty, anger is a dangerous inner driver that can eclipse restraint and discernment.
Sañjaya reports to King Dhṛtarāṣṭra that an illustrious Pāṇḍava great warrior, seized by anger, strikes Śalya—the king of Madra—with three arrows, battering him severely in battle.
