Shloka 126
भीष्मस्य दुर्योधनं प्रति उपालम्भः
Bhīṣma’s Reproof to Duryodhana
राक्षसानां च राजेन्द्र दुर्योधनबलस्य च । राजेन्द्र! फिर तो दुर्योधनकी सेना तथा राक्षसोंमें भयंकर एवं रोमांचकारी युद्ध होने लगा
rākṣasānāṃ ca rājendra duryodhana-balasya ca |
Wika ni Sañjaya: “O hari, sumiklab noon ang isang mabangis at nakapangingilabot na labanan sa pagitan ng mga Rākṣasa at ng hukbo ni Duryodhana.” Ipinahihiwatig ng taludtod na sa kaguluhan ng digmaan, maging ang mga puwersang magkakampi ay maaaring itulak sa marahas na sagupaan, na naglalantad ng pagkagulo ng moralidad na kaakibat ng ambisyong pinangungunahan ng adharma.

The verse highlights how war magnifies disorder: when leadership is driven by adharma and ambition, violence can spill beyond intended enemies, turning even associated groups into mutual destroyers and deepening moral confusion.
Sañjaya reports to the king that a terrifying battle erupts between the Rākṣasas and Duryodhana’s forces, emphasizing the intensity and unsettling nature of the fighting.
