Duryodhana’s Śaraṇāgati and the Pāṇḍavas’ Resolve
Gandharva Encounter
संहतानि च तूर्याणि प्रावाद्यन्त हुनेकश: । फिर तो उस समय हाथोंमें अस्त्र-शस्त्र उठाये सम्पूर्ण देवता हर्षमें भरकर कोलाहल करने लगे और अनेक प्रकारके विजय-वाद्य एक साथ बज उठे
saṁhatāni ca tūryāṇi prāvādyanta hunekaśaḥ |
马尔坎德耶说道:“于是,诸般战乐齐鸣,同声汇作一片高涨的合奏。”在叙事之中,这合鸣之音象征众神同心的决意与吉祥的自信——一种外在的庆贺,伴随他们合一的备战之势,预告行动与胜利。
मार्कण्डेय उवाच
When righteous forces act in unity, their shared purpose becomes visible through coordinated, auspicious signs—here, the collective sounding of instruments symbolizes concord, confidence, and the moral momentum of a just cause.
Mārkaṇḍeya describes a moment of heightened celebration and readiness: the instruments of triumph are played all at once, indicating that the assembled divine forces are rejoicing and preparing for decisive action.
