FORKLARING: Kuru-dynastiets bedstefader kunne forstå, hvad der foregik i hjertet på hans sønnesøn Duryodhana. På grund af sin naturlige medfølelse med ham forsøgte han at opmuntre ham ved at blæse højt i sin konkylie, så den lød som en løves brøl. Gennem konkyliens symbolik fortalte han indirekte sin nedtrykte sønnesøn Duryodhana, at denne ingen chance havde for at vinde slaget, eftersom den Højeste Herre, Kṛṣṇa, befandt Sig på den anden side. Men ikke desto mindre var det hans [Bhīṣmas] pligt at føre an i slaget, og i den henseende ville han give sig selv fuldt ud.

The grandsire of the Kuru dynasty could understand the inner meaning of the heart of his grandson Duryodhana, and out of his natural compassion for him he tried to cheer him by blowing his conchshell very loudly, befitting his position as a lion. Indirectly, by the symbolism of the conchshell, he informed his depressed grandson Duryodhana that he had no chance of victory in the battle, because the Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa was on the other side. But still, it was his duty to conduct the fight, and no pains would be spared in that connection.
