Shloka 93
य एतत् प्राप्य मुच्येत न त॑ पश्यामि पूरुषम् । लोहेके विशाल परिघोंकी भाँति मेरी इन मोटी भुजाओंका मध्यभाग कैसा है, यह देख लीजिये। मैं ऐसे किसी वीर पुरुषको नहीं देखता, जो इनके भीतर आकर फिर जीवित निकल जाय
ya etat prāpya mucyeta na taṁ paśyāmi pūruṣam |
Mariing ipinahayag ni Bhīmasena: “Tingnan ninyo ang gitna ng makakapal kong bisig—gaya ng malalaking pamalong bakal. Wala akong nakikitang sinumang mandirigma na makapapasok sa pagkakasakal ng aking mga bisig at makalalabas pang buhay.”

The verse highlights the Kṣatriya ethos of unwavering resolve: Bhīma frames his strength and determination as decisive in confronting injustice, implying that wrongdoing will meet inescapable consequences in the righteous war.
In the Udyoga Parva’s war-preparation context, Bhīma speaks aggressively, asserting that no opponent who comes within his arms’ reach can survive—an intimidation meant to signal readiness for the imminent conflict.
