Duryodhana’s Śaraṇāgati and the Pāṇḍavas’ Resolve
Gandharva Encounter
ततस्तस्मिन् भये घोरे देवानां समुपस्थिते । आजगाम महासेन: क्रोधात् सूर्य इव ज्वलन्,देवताओंके लिये वह घोर भयका अवसर उपस्थित था। इसी समय जगमगाते हुए सूर्यकी भाँति कुमार महासेन क्रोधमें भरे हुए वहाँ आ पहुँचे
tatastasmīn bhaye ghore devānāṃ samupasthite | ājagāma mahāsenaḥ krodhāt sūrya iva jvalan |
随后,当诸天陷入可怖的危局之时,童子大军神(库玛罗·摩诃塞那)来到那里——怒焰炽盛,光辉如日。
मार्कण्डेय उवाच
When dharma and cosmic balance are threatened, decisive protective action may arise even in the form of fierce energy; anger, when aligned with the protection of order and the vulnerable, is portrayed as a legitimate force rather than mere passion.
Mārkaṇḍeya describes a moment of grave danger for the gods; at that very time Mahāsena (Kumāra/Skanda) arrives, radiant and blazing like the sun, driven by wrath to confront the threat.
