Chapter 47: Krauñca-vyūha Deployment and Conch-Signals
Kaurava–Pāṇḍava Readiness
प्रत्यपद्यन्त ते सर्वे स्वरथान् पुरुषर्षभा: । ततो व्यूहं यथापूर्व प्रत्यव्यूहन्त ते पुन:,फिर वे सभी श्रेष्ठ पुरुष अपने-अपने रथपर आरूढ़ हुए; इसके बाद उन्होंने पुनः शत्रुओंके मुकाबलेमें पहलेकी भाँति ही अपनी सेनाकी व्यूह-रचना की
pratyapadyanta te sarve sva-rathān puruṣarṣabhāḥ | tato vyūhaṃ yathāpūrvaṃ pratyavyūhanta te punaḥ ||
三阇耶说:于是,那些如雄牛般的英雄尽皆重登各自战车。其后,他们又一次如先前那般,重新结成军阵以迎敌——在战场的逼迫与喧嚣中,复归严整之序。
संजय उवाच
Even in violent conflict, the narrative highlights kṣatriya discipline and organized conduct: warriors return to their stations and restore formation, implying that duty and order are maintained rather than giving way to chaos.
After a disruption in the fighting, the warriors mount their own chariots again and re-establish their military formation, arranging themselves to face the opposing side as they had earlier.
