भीष्मशिबिरगमनम् — Duryodhana’s Visit to Bhīṣma’s Camp and the Command Appeal
आद्रवन्तमभिप्रेक्ष्य राक्षसं युद्धदुर्मदम् । इरावानथ संरब्ध: प्रत्यधावन्महाबल:,रणदुर्मद राक्षस अलम्बुषको अपने ऊपर धावा करते देख महाबली इरावान् भी क्रोधमें भरकर उसके ऊपर टूट पड़ा
ādravantam abhiprekṣya rākṣasaṁ yuddha-durmadam | irāvān atha saṁrabdhaḥ pratyadhāvan mahābalaḥ ||
三阇耶说道:见那罗刹因战斗狂傲而发狂,向自己猛冲而来,力大无比的伊罗婆那也怒火腾起,迎面冲上前去。
संजय उवाच
When battle is properly engaged, a warrior is expected to confront aggression directly. The verse highlights courage and the kṣatriya duty to respond to an oncoming attacker without yielding, while also hinting at the moral danger of war-intoxication (yuddha-durmada).
Alambuṣa, a rākṣasa warrior, rushes to attack. Irāvān sees him charging and, angered and resolute, counter-charges with great force as Sañjaya narrates the clash.
