आददानं महेष्वासं संदधानं च पाण्डवम् ॥
विसृजन्तं च कौन्तेयं नानुपश्यामहे तदा ॥
तथा सर्वा दिशो राजन् सर्वांश् च रथिनो रणे ॥
आकुलीकृत्य कौन्तेयो जयद्रथम् उपाद्रवत् ॥
विव्याध च चतुःषष्ट्या शराणां नतपर्वणाम् ॥
ādadānaṃ maheṣvāsaṃ saṃdadhānaṃ ca pāṇḍavam ||
visṛjantaṃ ca kaunteyaṃ nānupaśyāmahe tadā ||
tathā sarvā diśo rājan sarvāṃś ca rathino raṇe ||
ākulīkṛtya kaunteyo jayadratham upādravat ||
vivyādha ca catuḥṣaṣṭyā śarāṇāṃ nataparvaṇām ||
Taking [arrows], fitting [them], the Pandava, and hurling [them], the Kaunteya — we could not then distinguish [these separate moments]. Thus, having thrown into confusion all directions, O king, and all warriors in the battle, the Kaunteya rushed upon Jayadratha.

Arjuna's movements merge into one — taking, fitting, releasing become indistinguishable: perfection erases the line between separate efforts. It is telling that this whole whirlwind is directed toward a single point — Jayadratha. The verse teaches that supreme mastery shows itself as an unbroken continuity in which no separate steps can be seen; and power gathered toward a single goal throws much into confusion while becoming, in itself, a swift, undivided stream.
