अध्याय २२ — अमर्याद-युद्धवर्णन
Unrestrained Battle Description and Śakuni’s Rear Assault
अति सर्वाणि भूतानि ददृशु: सर्वमानवा: । उस महामनस्वी वीरकी फुर्ती, अस्त्र-संचालनका सुन्दर ढंग तथा पराक्रम--इन सबको सब लोगोंने सम्पूर्ण प्राणियोंसे बढ़-चढ़कर देखा
ati sarvāṇi bhūtāni dadṛśuḥ sarvamānavāḥ |
Wika ni Sañjaya: Nasaksihan ng lahat ng tao na para bang nahihigitan niya ang lahat ng nilalang—ang masiglang bilis, ang marikit na kahusayan sa paghawak ng sandata, at ang kanyang kagitingan. Ipinapakita ng tanawing ito na ang husay sa digmaan, kapag lantad sa mata ng madla, ay nagiging panukat sa paghatol sa isang mandirigma sa gitna ng bigat na moral ng labanan.
