गौरुडव्यूह-रचना तथा अर्धचन्द्र-प्रत्यव्यूह
Garuḍa Array and the Ardhacandra Counter-Formation
आपततन्तं ततो भीष्मो भीमसेन॑ प्रतापवान्
āpatatantaṃ tato bhīṣmo bhīmasenaṃ pratāpavān
Wika ni Sañjaya: Pagkaraan, si Bhīṣma na makapangyarihan, nagliliyab sa tapang, ay humarap kay Bhīmasena habang ito’y sumasalakay pasulong—wari’y ang batikang awtoridad na sumasalubong sa bugso ng lakas, sa gitna ng bigat ng digmaang magkakamag-anak.

The verse highlights the clash between youthful momentum and elder mastery, suggesting that in war—and in life—raw force meets the tested discipline of experience; it also underscores the tragic necessity of performing one’s role amid a conflict where righteousness is complex.
Sañjaya narrates that Bhīma rushes forward to attack, and Bhīṣma—renowned for his prowess—moves to meet him, setting up a direct confrontation on the Kurukṣetra battlefield.
