Shakuni unleashes upon Arjuna not something real but an illusion -- a phantasm of every kind of weapon pouring from everywhere. This long catalogue of implements shows how inventive illusion becomes, straining to overwhelm by number and variety where it cannot prevail by strength. It is telling that this whole mass is a deception, a phantom with no substance beneath it. The verse teaches that falsehood, powerless in honest battle, resorts to a multitude of phantoms to frighten and confound; that abundance and variety of threats do not by themselves make them real; and that wise is one who discerns, behind the fearsome multiplicity of illusion, its empty foundation -- for what could not prevail by truth strains to prevail by delusion, which dissolves at the first ray of real knowledge.
