Educational Q&A
Even in warfare, the narrative highlights how moments of encirclement and restraint become ethical pressure-points: they reveal steadiness (dhairya), strategic judgment, and the boundary between rightful combat and excessive coercion.
Sañjaya reports a battlefield development: the Pāṇḍavas—described as mahātmans—have been checked or hemmed in, indicating a tactical containment that heightens danger and sets up the next action or response.
