Reinforcing the army of Yudhishthira, which was ample even without him, the son of Sini will take his stand on the field of battle and scatter his arrows like seed upon a tilled field. And Bhimasena will take his position in the very vanguard of the combatants, while all his warriors fearlessly stand behind him as behind a rampart. Indeed, when you, O Duryodhana, see elephants huge as hills stretched upon the ground, their tusks broken, their temples crushed, and their bodies stained with blood — when you see them lying on the field of battle like riven hills, then, dreading to meet him, you will remember these words of mine. Beholding your own army of chariots, horses, and elephants devoured by Bhimasena, presenting the spectacle of a widespread trail of fire, you will recall these words of mine.

The passage 5.58.21-25 develops the central theme of the Udyoga-parva: the effort toward peace already unfolds against the backdrop of an inevitable war. Key figures here are Krishna, the Pandavas, and war itself. Dharma reveals itself through speech, through the choice of an embassy, through fidelity to one's promises, and through the responsibility kings bear for the consequences of their decisions.
