Durgātitaraṇa—Conduct for Crossing Difficulties (दुर्गातितरणम्)
आहवेषु च ये शूरास्त्यक्त्वा मरणजं भयम् | धर्मेण जयमिच्छन्ति दुर्गाण्यतितरन्ति ते,जो शूरवीर युद्धस्थलमें मृत्युका भय छोड़कर धर्मपूर्वक विजय पाना चाहते हैं, वे सभी दुःखोंसे पार हो जाते हैं
āhaveṣu ca ye śūrās tyaktvā maraṇajaṁ bhayam | dharmeṇa jayam icchanti durgāṇy atitaranti te ||
毗湿摩说道：那些英雄在战阵逼迫之中，抛却由死亡而生的恐惧，依达摩求取胜利——此等人能越过最艰险的关隘，克服自身诸苦。

Educational Q&A
Courage becomes ethically meaningful when it is guided by dharma: a warrior who abandons death-fear and seeks victory by righteous means is said to overcome even severe hardships and inner turmoil.
In the Śānti Parva’s instruction to Yudhiṣṭhira, Bhīṣma continues teaching about dharma and conduct; here he praises warriors who, amid battle, set aside fear of death and pursue victory in a lawful, duty-bound manner.
