Arjuna sets himself level with the teacher's own son: 'aśvatthāmā yathā… tathā aham api te rakṣyaḥ,' 'as Ashvatthaman, so am I too kept by you.' The plea 'pratijñāṃ rakṣa me,' 'keep my vow,' is addressed to the one who protects the enemy — and in this lies trust in the very nature of the guru. It is telling that the devotee appeals not to the teacher's weakness but to his fatherhood. The verse teaches that the true disciple honors in his teacher a father even in the hour of confrontation: he asks not for mercy but for fatherly favor; and the memory of the guru-disciple bond remains sacred even where duty has placed them on opposite sides.
