One word and one hand of the elder brother suffice to stop a force that whole armies could not have restrained: all of Bhima's might submits to reverence for Yudhishthira. Here the power of gentleness over fury shows itself — tamed not by force but voluntarily submitting to dharma. And at once Yudhishthira, having curbed his brother, himself bows with folded hands before Dhritarashtra: he who has tamed another's anger begins with his own humility. The verse teaches that a true leader rules not by force but by righteousness, to which even force submits; that humility is not weakness but the highest self-mastery; and that the path to restoring a violated peace is opened not by the sword but by hands folded in reverence.
