Arjuna’s Advance toward Bhīṣma; The Gāṇḍīva’s Signal and the Armies’ Convergence (भीष्माभिमुखगमनम् — गाण्डीवनिर्घोष-ध्वजवर्णनम्)
निनाय समरे वीर: परलोकाय पाण्डव: । इसके बाद पाण्डुनन्दन वीरवर भीमसेनने समरभूमिमें घोड़े, ध्वज और सारथिसहित वीरबाहुको सत्तर बाणोंसे मारकर परलोक पहुँचा दिया
sañjaya uvāca | nināya samare vīraḥ paralokāya pāṇḍavaḥ |
三阇耶说道：在鏖战之中，那英勇的般度之子将敌手送往来世。其后，般度诸子中最卓绝的勇士——大力的毗摩塞那——以七十支箭射倒战士毗罗婆呼，连同其马、旗帜与御者一并击毙，就此将他从战场遣往彼世。

The verse highlights the harsh reality of kṣatriya-duty in war: valor is measured by steadfast action in battle, yet the ethical gravity remains—victory entails taking life, and the slain are spoken of as being sent to the ‘other world,’ reminding the listener of mortality and consequence.
Sañjaya reports that a Pāṇḍava hero dispatches an opponent in battle. The accompanying prose clarifies that Bhīma then kills the warrior Vīrabāhu with seventy arrows, also striking down his horse, banner, and charioteer, removing him completely from combat.
