Having heard this speech of Vasudeva, all the kings, in silence, looked toward the face of the king, O Bharata. Yudhishthira, having grasped the intention of the lords of the earth, together with Bhima, Arjuna, and the twins, ordered the army made ready. Then, when the order for readiness was given, the army of the Pandava resounded with jubilant shouts, and the warriors rejoiced greatly. But the king of dharma, Yudhishthira, seeing the slaying of those who should not be slain, sighed heavily and said this to Bhimasena and Vijaya: "That for which I endured forest exile and the suffering I underwent — this very thing now approaches us as the greatest calamity, despite all our striving."

Here Yudhishthira once again tests the decision for war through dharma: his question is not about advantage, but about how to act without falling from his duty. Krishna's answer and Arjuna's reminder show that peace was exhausted not through any weakness of effort, but through Duryodhana's conscious rejection of dharma; thus the battle becomes not a desire for violence, but the inevitable fulfillment of responsibility.
