There the son of Kunti, with Krishna as his charioteer, wrought the highest wonder: that he alone engaged many fearlessly. The mighty-armed one shone, brandishing the bow Gandiva, desiring to overcome those tiger-like men and to slay Jayadratha. There Arjuna, O great king, the tormentor of enemies, made your warriors invisible with arrows loosed by the thousands. Then those tiger-like men too, all great warriors, made Partha invisible in battle with streams of arrows from every side. When Arjuna, the bull [among] the Kurus, was surrounded by those lion-like men, a great roar of that army arose.

The supreme adbhutam of the battle is eko bahubhiḥ sārdhaṃ samāgacchad abhītavat — that one man fearlessly stood against many: this fearlessness comes from Krishna the charioteer, whose presence turns one into the equal of a multitude. Arjuna's eye remains fixed here too on his main goal — jighāṃsuḥ ca jayadratham. It is telling that the mutual adṛśyān akarot — both sides obscuring each other under clouds of arrows — cannot hide the one protected by the Lord. The verse teaches that with God as charioteer, even one is never alone, and fear retreats where the Supreme Himself holds the reins.
