Sandhi Notes

Educational Q&A

What is the core teaching?

Even when framed as kṣatriya-duty, war is shown as mutual injury with immediate human cost; the verse underscores the ethical weight of violence by highlighting blood-soaked bodies returning to camp rather than celebrating victory.

What is happening in the narrative?

Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that after the day’s fighting, the warriors—having wounded one another—withdraw from the battlefield and go back to their respective camps, drenched in blood.
