आविष्टा इव युध्यन्ते रक्षोभूता महाबला: । तावका: पाण्डवेयाश्व संरब्धास्तात धन्विन:,तात! आपके और पाण्डवपक्षके महाबली धनुर्धर वीर भूतोंसे आविष्ट-से होकर राक्षसोंक समान बनकर क्रोधपूर्वक एक-दूसरेसे जूझ रहे थे
sañjaya uvāca | āviṣṭā iva yudhyante rakṣobhūtā mahābalāḥ | tāvakāḥ pāṇḍaveyāś ca saṃrabdhās tāta dhanvinaḥ ||
三阇耶说道：“亲爱的啊，你方的强弓勇士与般度族战士，仿佛被附体一般鏖战不止；其神色举止宛如罗刹，怒火炽盛，在战阵的狂乱中彼此扭斗相搏。”

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how anger and battle-frenzy can eclipse human restraint, making even heroic warriors appear ‘possessed’ and ‘demonic’ in conduct—an implicit ethical warning about the corrosive power of krodha (wrath) and the loss of discernment in violence.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that both sides—Kaurava and Pāṇḍava archers—are locked in intense combat, fighting as if possessed, their ferocity likened to rākṣasas, driven by anger as they clash with one another.
