Shloka 83
सुसंरब्ध: कर्णशरक्षताड़े रणे पार्थ: कौरवानू प्रत्यगृह्नात् । तब कर्णके बाणोंसे जिनका अंग-अंग क्षत-विक्षत हो गया था, उन कुन्तीकुमार अर्जुनने रणभूमिमें अत्यन्त कुपित हो शीघ्र ही धनुषकी प्रत्यंचाको झुकाकर चढ़ा दिया और कर्णके चलाये हुए बाणोंको छिन्न-भिन्न करके कौरवोंको आगे बढ़नेसे रोक दिया ।। ज्यां चानुमृज्या भ्यहनत् ततनत्रे बाणान्धकारं सहसा च चक्रे
su-saṃrabdhaḥ karṇa-śara-kṣata-tāḍe raṇe pārthaḥ kauravānū pratyagṛhṇāt | tadā karṇena bāṇaiḥ yasyāṅgāṅgaṃ kṣata-vikṣataṃ kṛtaṃ taṃ kuntīkumāram arjunaṃ raṇabhūmau atyanta-kupitaṃ śīghraṃ dhanuṣaḥ pratyāṃcaṃ namayitvā āropayāmāsa, karṇaprayuktān bāṇān chinna-bhinnān kṛtvā kauravān agrato gantum avārayat || jyāṃ cānumṛjya abhyahanat tatantre bāṇāndhakāraṃ sahasā ca cakre ||
三阇耶说道：战场之上，阿周那——周身被迦尔那之箭击穿撕裂——怒意与决断骤然燃起。他迅速弯弓上弦，击碎迦尔那射来的箭矢，遏止俱卢军继续推进。继而拭过弓弦，他在紧绷的弓上连发不息，顷刻间造成“箭之黑暗”——铺天盖地的反击箭雨，迫使敌军攻势回退。

The verse highlights kṣatriya steadfastness: even when wounded, Arjuna regains composure, strings his bow, and responds with disciplined force. Ethically, it underscores resilience and duty in crisis—meeting aggression without surrendering initiative.
After being badly struck by Karṇa’s arrows, Arjuna becomes intensely angry, quickly strings and draws his bow, breaks Karṇa’s incoming arrows, and halts the Kaurava advance by unleashing a dense, darkening volley of arrows.
