Educational Q&A
Even amid violent conflict, dharma expresses itself through competent, compassionate service: the charioteer fulfills his role by tending to the wounded warrior and horses, showing that duty includes protection and care, not only combat.
After a fierce exchange of weapons, Bhishma narrates that his charioteer removed the arrows lodged in Bhishma’s body and in the horses, restoring their ability to continue and highlighting the practical support systems within warfare.
