Six of the foremost warriors surround the boy — and he, having wounded them, turns them back and presses on further, toward Jayadratha. It is telling that the boy strains precisely toward the Sindhi king — toward the very barrier that cut him off from his own: he seeks to break the obstacle, understanding the root of his entrapment. The verse teaches that even surrounded by six of the most formidable, the valiant one does not merely defend but breaks through toward the main goal; that a wise warrior strikes at the root of the trouble, not at incidental foes; and that Abhimanyu, tearing through enemies toward Jayadratha's very barrier, shows sound instinct — but that barrier, guarded by Shiva's boon, is beyond his strength, and in this very drive toward it his doom is already foreshadowed.
