Duryodhana-śibira-praveśaḥ — The Pāṇḍavas Enter the Kaurava Camp; The Burning of Arjuna’s Chariot
वैरस्य च गतः पार त्वमिहान्यै: सुदुर्गमम् । अशक्यमेतदन्येन सम्पादयितुमीदूशम्
vairasya ca gataḥ pāra tvam ihānyaiḥ sudurgamam | aśakyam etad anyena sampādayitum īdṛśam ||
Sinabi ni Sañjaya: “Tunay ngang nalampasan mo ang poot at narating ang malayong pampang; dito ay nagawa mo ang bagay na lubhang mahirap para sa iba. Ang ganitong tagumpay ay hindi matatapos ng sinumang iba.”

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the ethical ideal of rising beyond personal hostility (vairasya) and completing a difficult duty or mission that ordinary people cannot accomplish—implying exceptional steadiness, capability, and self-mastery.
Sañjaya addresses a person being praised for having ‘crossed the far shore’ of enmity and for achieving an extraordinarily difficult task in the ongoing war narrative, emphasizing that such an accomplishment would be impossible for anyone else.
