Power is ethically meaningful when used to restrain and neutralize harm. Bhīma’s strength is portrayed as protective and disciplined—an instrument of dharma rather than mere aggression.
Bhīma seizes the rākṣasa in a crushing embrace, holding him chest-to-chest and dragging him about by force while the demon struggles to break free—an intensification of the combat where Bhīma gains physical control.
