"You, Bhima, make haste, go where Dhananjaya is; all my [senses] are indeed troubled from the longing to see Dhananjaya." "Go, go!" -- he said to Bhimasena again. Strongly urged by his brother, the brother who brought his brother joy, having let out a lion's roar, drawing the bowstring again and again, showing himself fearsome, he suddenly charged at his foes.

Bhima, "the brother who brings his brother joy," rushes to fulfill the wish of a loving heart. It is telling that between the brothers, love and obedience are one. The verse teaches that service born of love is swift and eager: one who carries out a dear one's wish not from compulsion but from love flies to the task with a lion's cry, for to the loving, a brother's command is joy, not burden.
