Drona shows the image of an active commander: "svayaṃ... racayan... vegitaḥ," he himself, swiftly, arrays the troops. The teacher does not command from afar but labors among the ranks. It is telling that this personal diligence goes toward arranging a formation to shield a single man. The verse teaches that a leader is called not to detached command but to living participation in the task: Drona himself rushes about, arraying the army; yet this effort, for all its skill, is aimed at sheltering the guilty -- and so his mastery, lacking rightness of purpose, is doomed before Him with whom the Lord stands.
