युधिष्ठिरस्य धनंजय-प्रति गर्हा
Yudhiṣṭhira’s Reproach to Dhanaṃjaya
तत् प्रकीर्णरथाश्वेभ॑ं नरवाजिसमाकुलम्
tat prakīrṇarathāśvebhaṁ naravājisamākulam
Sinabi ni Sañjaya: “Ang larangan ng digmaan ay naging nagkalat na kaguluhan ng mga karwahe at kabayo, siksikan at barado sa mga tao at mga kabayong pandigma.”
संजय उवाच
The verse underscores the moral and human cost of war through imagery of disarray—when dharma collapses into armed conflict, the ordered structures of society (symbolized by disciplined chariots and cavalry) dissolve into confusion and suffering.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the combat zone has become a tumultuous scene: chariots and horses lie scattered, and the area is densely crowded with warriors and steeds, conveying the intensity and disorder of the fighting.
