Ādi-parva Adhyāya 132 — Duryodhana’s Instructions to Purocana at Vāraṇāvata
Lākṣāgṛha Planning
तुल्येष्वस्त्रोपदेशेषु सौष्ठवेन च वीर्यवान् । एक: सर्वकुमाराणां बभूवातिरथो<र्जुन:
tulyeṣv astropadeśeṣu sauṣṭhavena ca vīryavān | ekaḥ sarvakumārāṇāṃ babhūvātiratho 'rjunaḥ ||
毗湿摩耶那说道：虽说兵器之学对诸王子一视同仁地传授，然而勇武的阿周那凭其卓绝之才，独自成为众王子中的“阿提罗陀”（atiratha，超等车战勇士）。此段表明：机会均等并不必然带来结果均等；唯有严谨的修习、天赋的锤炼与内在的力量，方能使人登临非凡的精熟之境。

Educational Q&A
Even when instruction and opportunity are equal, excellence arises from superior skill, effort, and valor; Arjuna’s distinction is attributed to his sauṣṭhava (refined mastery) rather than special treatment.
Vaiśampāyana remarks that among the royal youths receiving the same weapons-training, Arjuna alone stands out and attains the status of an atiratha, signaling his exceptional martial capability.
