भीमसेनस्य वेगाभिपातः—विशोकसारथिसंवादश्च
Bhīma’s surge and dialogue with charioteer Viśoka
तत्र तत्रैव धावन्त: समदृश्यन्त भारत । भरतनन्दन! उनके रथका सारथि धराशायी हो चुका था
tatra tatraiva dhāvantaḥ samadṛśyanta bhārata |
Wika ni Sañjaya: “O Bhārata, sa mismong larangan ng digmaan, nakita silang nagmamadaling tumatakbo rito at doon.” Nang bumagsak ang tagapagmaneho ng karwahe, kumawala ang mga kabayo at nagtakbuhang walang patnubay; at panandaliang nilamon ng kaguluhan ng digmaan ang layon ng mandirigma.

Educational Q&A
Even in a righteous cause, outcomes depend on discipline and guidance; when the guiding agent (like a charioteer) is lost, force becomes directionless, illustrating how dharma in action requires control, competence, and steadiness amid conflict.
Sañjaya reports that combatants (or chariots) are seen rushing about in different directions on the battlefield, suggesting confusion and uncontrolled movement in the midst of the fighting.
