दुःशासनवधः (Duḥśāsana-vadha) — Bhīma’s vow-fulfillment in combat
अविध्यत् तूर्णमभ्येत्य सहदेव: प्रतापवान् | इसी समय प्रतापी सहदेवने आकर शीघ्रतापूर्वक अस्त्र चलाते हुए तुरंत ही बीस बाणोंसे दुर्योधनको बींध डाला
avidyat tūrṇam abhyetya sahadevaḥ pratāpavān |
三阇耶说道:英勇的娑诃提婆迅疾上前,毫不迟疑,立刻发矢击中难敌(Duryodhana),以二十支箭将其贯穿。战场之法冷峻无情,此刻显出有纪律的迅捷与精确,直指强敌;个人勇名亦须屈从于战争阴沉的要求。
संजय उवाच
The verse highlights kṣatriya-dharma in its starkest form: decisive action, courage, and technical mastery in battle. Ethical focus lies not in celebrating violence, but in showing how warriors are bound to act with resolve and competence when duty and conflict have become unavoidable.
Sañjaya reports that Sahadeva rapidly advances and immediately pierces Duryodhana with twenty arrows, marking a sharp exchange in the ongoing battle sequence of the Karṇa Parva.
