The verse highlights the potency of brāhmaṇical tejas (spiritual energy born of tapas and dharma): when aligned with righteousness, it can check or destroy harmful forces, implying that moral-spiritual authority can be stronger than mere physical power.
Bhīṣma states that the great sage Nārada arrives and informs the addressed lord about the manner in which illustrious brāhmaṇas, through their tejas, brought about the destruction of the Kapas.
