Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s Anxiety and Bhīṣma’s Theological Explanation of Pāṇḍava Invincibility
Book 6, Chapter 61
तस्मिन् युद्धे महारौद्रे वर्तमाने सुदारुणे । प्रत्यदृश्यन्त रथिनो धावमाना: समन्ततः,उस अत्यन्त दारुण और महाभयंकर युद्धमें रथी योद्धा चारों ओर दौड़ते दिखायी देते थे
tasmin yuddhe mahāraudre vartamāne sudāruṇe | pratyadṛśyanta rathino dhāvamānāḥ samantataḥ ||
جب وہ نہایت ہولناک اور بے حد سفّاک جنگ بھڑک رہی تھی تو ہر سمت رتھی یودھا دوڑتے ہوئے دکھائی دیتے تھے۔

Educational Q&A
The verse underscores the overwhelming, dehumanizing intensity of war: even elite chariot-warriors are reduced to frantic motion amid terror and cruelty, inviting reflection on the ethical cost of conflict.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the battle has become extremely fierce; chariot-fighters are seen charging and rushing about on all sides as the fighting rages.
