The mere approach of Satyaki throws the whole army into terror -- "bhūya eva abhavat mūḍham... akampata": the dread of the valiant one precedes the very blow. And what moves him is not willfulness, but "dharmarājasya śāsanāt", the command of the King of Dharma. It is telling that strength consecrated by duty and love strikes fear before it strikes at all. The verse teaches that true valor, moving at the bidding of the righteous, inspires trembling by its mere appearance; and what terrifies is not fury itself, but the resolve of one behind whom stand both duty and love.
