Wika ni Vaiśampāyana: Napuno iyon ng magulong ingay ng mga pabaya at mga lasing—mapagmalaking singhot, malalakas na sigaw, at nagngangalit na hiyawan—hudyat ng pagkawala ng pagpipigil at ng panganib sa asal kapag ang pita at pagmamataas ay nanaig sa disiplina.

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how heedlessness and intoxication (literal or emotional—pride, excitement, aggression) create social and moral chaos. In the epic’s ethical frame, such loss of restraint is a warning sign: when discipline and discernment collapse, violence and adharma easily spread.
The narrator describes a scene (typically a martial or public gathering) as noisy and tumultuous—packed with loud cries and challenging sounds from people who are careless and carried away. The emphasis is on the atmosphere of uncontrolled excitement and confusion.
