ततः किरीटी रणमूर्थ्नि कोपात् कृत्वा त्रिशाखां भ्रुकुटिं ललाटे
tataḥ kirīṭī raṇamūrdhni kopāt kṛtvā triśākhāṃ bhrukuṭiṃ lalāṭe
三阇耶说道：于是，冠冕之士基里提（阿周那）立于战阵最前，怒意翻涌，眉间紧蹙，在额上刻出三道褶纹——这是他为正义之战所需而使决心愈发坚硬的外在征兆。

The verse highlights how inner emotions manifest outwardly and signal intent: in war, especially under kṣatriya-dharma, controlled wrath and firm resolve can become the psychological prelude to decisive action—yet it also implicitly warns that anger is a powerful force that must be directed toward duty rather than personal hatred.
Sañjaya describes Arjuna at the battle’s forefront. Provoked into anger, Arjuna knits his brows into a pronounced, threefold furrow on his forehead—an epic visual cue that he is preparing to act with heightened intensity in the ongoing combat.
