Mūsų stiprybė neišmatuojama, be to, mus patikimai saugo senolis Bhīṣma, o išgalės Pāṇḍavų, rūpestingai saugomų Bhīmos, ribotos.

Purport

Herein an estimation of comparative strength is made by Duryodhana. He thinks that the strength of his armed forces is immeasurable, being specifically protected by the most experienced general, Grandfather Bhīṣma. On the other hand, the forces of the Pāṇḍavas are limited, being protected by a less experienced general, Bhīma, who is like a fig in the presence of Bhīṣma. Duryodhana was always envious of Bhīma because he knew perfectly well that if he should die at all, he would only be killed by Bhīma. But at the same time, he was confident of his victory on account of the presence of Bhīṣma, who was a far superior general. His conclusion that he would come out of the battle victorious was well ascertained.

KOMENTARAS: Šiame posme Duryodhana palygina ir įvertina jėgas. Jis mano, kad jo ginkluotųjų pajėgų galybė neišmatuojama, nes ypač pasikliauja milžinišką patirtį turinčio karvedžio, senolio Bhīṣmos apsauga. Kita vertus, jis įsitikinęs, kad Pāṇdavų jėgos ribotos, nes juos gina mažiau įgudęs karvedys Bhīma – gana menkas, lyginant jį su Bhīṣma. Duryodhana visada nekentė Bhīmos, nes puikiai žinojo, kad jeigu žus, tai tik nuo jo rankos.Vis dėlto jis tvirtai tiki savo pergale, nes kautynėse dalyvauja žymiai už Bhīmą pranašesnis karvedys Bhīṣma. Iš tiesų, Duryodhana turėjo pagrindo tikėtis laimėti šį mūšį.
