युधिष्ठिरस्य धनंजय-प्रति गर्हा
Yudhiṣṭhira’s Reproach to Dhanaṃjaya
भीमसेनमुखा: सर्वे पुत्रांस्ते प्रत्युपाद्रवन् । राजाकी यह आज्ञा पाते ही भीमसेन आदि समस्त पाण्डव महारथी आपके पुत्रोंपर टूट पड़े
bhīmasenamukhāḥ sarve putrāṁs te pratyupādravan |
سنجے نے کہا—بھیم سین کی قیادت میں تمام پانڈو مہارتھی تمہارے بیٹوں پر ٹوٹ پڑے۔ بادشاہ کا حکم ملتے ہی بھیم وغیرہ نے پل بھر میں ان پر یلغار کر دی۔

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the battlefield ethic of disciplined action: once a rightful command is issued within the warrior code, hesitation gives way to coordinated effort. Leadership (Bhīma at the front) and obedience to duty drive the collective response, showing how war amplifies resolve and consequences.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the Pāṇḍava fighters, with Bhīma leading, immediately charge and attack Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s sons. It marks a surge in the combat as the Pāṇḍavas act upon the king’s order and engage the Kaurava princes directly.
