कर्णपर्व — अध्याय ५९
Arjuna Breaks the Encirclement; Bhīma Reinforces
पार्थश्व पुरुषव्याप्र: शरै: संनतपर्वभि: । जघान धार्तराष्ट्रस्य चतुर्विधबलां चमूम्,पुरुषसिंह पार्थने झुकी हुई गाँठवाले बाणोंद्वारा दुर्योधनकी चतुरंगिणी सेनाका संहार कर डाला
pārthaś ca puruṣavyāghraḥ śaraiḥ sannatapārṇibhiḥ | jaghāna dhārtarāṣṭrasya caturvidhabalāṃ camūm ||
三阇耶说道:随后,般度之子帕尔塔(阿周那),人中之虎,以箭杆关节处微曲的箭矢,击杀并粉碎了达尔陀罗湿多罗之子的四部军(车、象、马、步)。
संजय उवाच
The verse highlights the decisive power of disciplined martial excellence in a dharma-framed war, while implicitly pointing to the ethical weight of warfare: victory achieved through skill still entails vast destruction and responsibility.
Sañjaya reports that Arjuna (Pārtha) uses his arrows to devastate Duryodhana’s fourfold Kaurava army—chariots, elephants, cavalry, and infantry—marking a major surge in the battle’s intensity.
