"Behold my valor, O charioteer, like Indra's in a great battle. Behold, I shall scatter the armies of the enemies with sharpened arrows. Behold the slain in battle — foot soldiers, horses, chariots, elephants — by my arrows, resembling fire, lifeless, by the thousands." While Sātyaki, of boundless might, was speaking thus, your soldiers, eager for battle, swiftly drew near.

Satyaki does not boast emptily: his word of valor is at once matched by deed — the enemies draw near, and he meets them. It is telling that his confidence is not vanity but a sober knowledge of his own strength, grounded in nearness to the Lord. The verse teaches that the speech of the valorous is no empty boast when confirmed by deed: one who speaks of his strength and at once displays it is not boastful but truthful — and words sealed by action are not pride but an honest measure of oneself.
