भीमसेनस्य बहुमहारथसंयुगः
Bhīmasena’s Engagement with Multiple Mahārathas
अन्तं यथा गमिष्यामि शत्रूणां शत्रुसूदन | अद्यैव पश्य दुर्धर्ष पात्यमानं महारथम्
antaṁ yathā gamiṣyāmi śatrūṇāṁ śatrusūdana | adyaiva paśya durdharṣa pātyamānaṁ mahāratham ||
三阇耶说：“噢，诛敌者，当我将把仇敌引向终局之时，请看——就在今日——噢，不可抗者，那位大车战士正被击倒。”

The verse underscores the inexorable momentum of war and the kṣatriya ethos: decisive action aimed at ending hostility, while reminding the listener that even the mightiest (a mahāratha) can be brought down—highlighting impermanence and the grave moral weight of martial power.
Sañjaya, narrating events of the battlefield, addresses a heroic figure with epithets like “slayer of foes” and “irresistible,” urging him to witness that very day a great chariot-warrior being felled, signaling a turning point in the combat.
