Arjuna’s Advance toward Bhīṣma; The Gāṇḍīva’s Signal and the Armies’ Convergence (भीष्माभिमुखगमनम् — गाण्डीवनिर्घोष-ध्वजवर्णनम्)
विव्याध विशिखै: षड्भि: कड़कपत्रै: शिलाशितै: । तब क्रोध और अमर्षमें भरे हुए आपके पुत्र नन्दकने कई हजार रथियोंके साथ आकर शिलापर तेज किये हुए कंकपत्रयुक्त छः: बाणोंसे महाबली भीमसेनको बींध डाला || ६६ || दुर्योधनश्व॒ समरे भीमसेनं महारथम्

三阇耶说道：他以六支箭射穿毗摩塞那——箭羽用鹭羽装饰，箭镞在石上磨得锋利。随后，你的儿子难陀迦因愤怒与受辱的自尊而膨胀，率数千乘车战士上前，又以六支锐利、石磨、鹭羽之箭击中那大力的毗摩。难敌也在战阵中攻袭毗摩塞那，那位大车战士。

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how krodha (anger) and amārṣa (injured pride) can dominate judgment and escalate harm. Even in a kṣatriya battlefield context, it implicitly contrasts raw aggression with the ethical ideal of self-mastery.
Sañjaya reports that Bhīma is struck by six stone-sharpened, heron-feathered arrows. Then Dhṛtarāṣṭra’s son—understood in context as Duryodhana—presses the attack amid many chariot-warriors, continuing the assault on Bhīma in the thick of battle.
